From September 2026, we have expanded our walking grade scale from 6 to 10 points. While the holidays themselves have not changed (the routes, daily distances and ascent levels remain the same), our newly expanded 1-10 scale offers greater distinction between holidays and clearer grade descriptions, so you can choose a holiday that best suits you.
Challenging walking grade 8
Challenging walks for fit, experienced walkers. Expect rugged or mountainous terrain, or some longer distances than typical for this grade. Typically, 12-13 miles (19-21km) with around 2,300ft (700m) of ascent.All our carefully-curated itineraries are designed by our experts. While we make every effort to adhere to the described itinerary, we may take alternative routes or adapt the running order for weather and/or operational reasons.

Georgia’s weather varies considerably from season to season, so it is good to pack layers. We travel in the summer months and depending on the location the temperatures can be mid 20s through to 30 degrees.

Georgia benefits from a favourable temperate climate year round.
Summers around the Black Sea area are warm and humid, with average temperatures reaching the mid to high 20s in the summer months. In the Eastern part of the country, the temperature is more moderate and arid with plenty of sunshine and occasional heavy rain, especially in the spring. The maximum altitude on our programme is 2,850 metres above sea level. In the Caucasus Mountains the weather is less predictable, and you may encounter cold snaps and down pours during our walks.
The local currency is Georgian Lari (GEL).
Credit cards can be used in big cities like Tbilisi and Kutaisi, but in places like Becho, Mestia and Ushguli, it’s better to have cash. ATMs are easy to find in Tbilisi and Kutaisi, there are a few in Mestia, but none in Becho or Ushguli.
We recommend approx. 100 GEL per day is enough, since most meals are included, however it depends how much each person wants to spend.
We see it as our responsibility to minimise our emissions, not just for this year but every year to come. Our work with sustainability experts, ecollective, has enabled us to measure our carbon footprint and create a strategy to reduce the carbon intensity of our product by 5% each year. Our ambition is to be net zero by 2040 – earlier if we can.
