5 Day: Axtala-Rafting on the Debet river.
Breakfast
The monastery complex of Akhtala, located in the middle of a picturesque area, was founded in the X century. The architecture of the monastery is very peculiar and quite noticeably differs from other buildings of this type. This is explained by the fact that when designing akhtal, master architects used an unusual mix of Armenian and Georgian architectural styles. Akhtala was not only a religious, but also a military-defensive object. This is reminiscent of the preserved defensive fortress and many secret underground tunnels.
Rafting. Man and nature are inextricably linked with each other. Living and working in cities, surrounded by stone buildings, people realize that they are steadily moving away from nature. Because of the acceleration of the rhythm of life, being under constant intellectual and emotional stress, he is increasingly exposed to a state of stress. We offer to make a reboot and spend the weekend surrounded by charming nature with the possibility of releasing adrenaline into the blood. The Debit river with the 4th level of difficulty has a length of 152 km. The most favorable time for rafting, in terms of weather and water level, is the period from June to October.
