Gordzhomi Gorge - Mount Leknari - Bakhmaro resort - Ajara, Georgia

Gordzhomi gorge is rather densely populated. In the center of the village there is a large five-domed wooden mosque. Approximately 450 meters from here there is a fork, from where the road leads directly to the resort of Bakhmaro, as well as to the waterfall. If we turn to the right, we will find ourselves in the Davladze area, to the camping sites and another waterfall.
The height of the water fall of the first cascade is almost 13 m. The second - 14 m. The third - 16 m, and the fourth - 19 m. The path leading to the waterfall is not landscaped. At the foot of the hill, on the banks of the river, there is a vast meadow that can be used for camping.
The road to the Bakhmaro resort is completely unpaved, and it is advisable to move along it by off-road vehicles. After Gordzhomi we find ourselves in the village of Sadzhogiya, which is used as a summer pasture.
Wooden houses predominate in these villages. There is also a small settlement called Samarile, followed by the village of Leknari, on the way to which you can see a waterfall, and in the village itself there is a small mosque.
From Leknari you can walk to the so-called "screaming stones" - a place where, according to local residents, there used to be an army camp.
From this place, beautiful views of the surroundings open up. There are many drinking springs and camping sites.
To continue the route, you need to return back from the valley and go in the direction of Bakhmaro. Near the road in Kikibo village you will see an ancient stone settlement, and a few kilometers to the left of the road you will come across a small stone "shelter".
After that, you should drive to the village of Zotikeli, which is most densely populated in summer. Here, in the center of the village, there are grocery stores, as well as a pharmacy and a mosque.
After Zotikeli, on the road to Bakhmaro, you will first pass the village of Shedrekili and then drive to Bakhmaro. In Bakhmaro you can find family-style hotels, grocery stores, bakeries, food service outlets, and a first-aid post.
