Outdoor Activities

Ballooning


The history of Ballooning began in Georgia in the 19th c., while modern history of Georgian ballooning starts in 2005, when the First Aeronautic Club was founded. The Georgian Air Navigation Administration allotted the Club flight zones almost throughout the whole country. Flights in Georgia are extremely appealing to balloon pilots. This is because that hot air ballooners have unrestricted use of the air space in our country and the weather conditions allow for flying almost all year round. The flights themselves are extremely interesting. The mountainous landscape creates unique air currents: during one flight you can make several 90-degree changes in direction and after passing over the tops of mountain ranges, land in a picturesque valley. The most favorable flights zones in Georgia are areas in Kartli and Alazani valleys.

Bird Watching


It is difficult to imagine a more varied and awe-inspiring birding location than Georgia. Within the Western Palaearctic, yet home to Himalayan-like 5000m mountains and endless Asiatic steppe, this compact country produces outstanding birding tours.
It has over 360 recorded species of bird including three endemics (found only here) – Caucasian Black Grouse, Caucasian Snowcock, Caucasian. By comparison, all of Western Europe has but one endemic. This is due to both the incredible diversity of landscape and Georgia’s position along migratory corridors. All three of the country’s endemics can be seen in the high mountains around Stepantsminda.

The coast of the Black Sea and the high Caucasian passes are particularly rich in birdlife. As a result Georgia has four vultures and eleven eagles, Flamingos, Bee-eaters, Rosefinches, Black Redstarts, Wall Creepers and numerous kinds of shrike, warbler and finch only rarely found in the rest of Europe. During migrations pelicans, storks, herons, owls, orioles, cuckoos, swallows, hoopoes, martlets, kingfishers and nightingales can be seen. Javakheti lakes, uninhabited semi-desert and the Greater Caucasus are the places that always fall into the routes of bird watchers.

It is often forgotten that the common pheasant found across Europe originates from Georgia’s own Phasianus Colchicus, it is thought they were brought to the rest of Europe by the Greeks in the bronze age.

Birding here is ever more popular and some of the best locations are not as remote or difficult to reach as you might think. Contact us and we will help you to reach fantastic viewing locations, such as looking straight down on an eagle’s nest or living directly below a virtual ecosystem of migrating birdlife.
