Basecamp Experience
Stay high beneath the peaks in a supported alpine basecamp — a multi-day base for hiking, light climbing and photography, with meals, tents and guiding handled. All camping equipment, campfire and food included.
Where we camp
Live under the peaks for a few days.
We set a supported camp in a high meadow or moraine near the mountains — Ushba, Tetnuldi or the Adishi glacier depending on the plan. From there, days are spent on ridge hikes, glacier walks, easy climbs or simply shooting the light.
Tents, sleeping setup, camp kitchen and meals are provided; a guide runs the daily program and safety. It suits photographers, small groups and travellers who want time in the mountains rather than a one-day dash.
The Svaneti basecamp experience
Rather than rushing from place to place, our basecamp experience lets you settle into Svaneti and explore it properly. From a comfortable base in Mestia, we run a flexible multi-day programme built around your interests — day hikes and the Mestia to Ushguli trek in summer, freeride and touring in winter, plus culture, food and rest days.
It is the ideal format for groups, families and anyone who wants depth over checklist tourism. One local team handles guiding, gear, meals and logistics, so each day you simply choose your adventure.
What a basecamp trip includes
Accommodation, guiding, activity planning and transfers, shaped day by day around weather and how you feel. Add a supra feast, a horse ride or a paragliding flight to round out the week.
