About This Ride
The Betlemi Hills ride is our most popular full-day experience. The route climbs steadily through changing landscapes — from forest floor to open alpine meadow — until you reach the Betlemi Hills, where a mountain cafe awaits with hot food and the most spectacular views in the region. Lunch here is an experience in itself: traditional Georgian cuisine served on a terrace overlooking the Greater Caucasus. The ride back follows a different trail, giving you a complete 360-degree experience of the Kazbegi region.
