Detailed itinerary

Jinvali Reservoir was built in 1985, in connection with the construction of the Zhinvali hydroelectric power station in the Aragvi river valley. The Zhinvali reservoir is of great importance in the water supply of the city of Tbilisi. It should be noted that the Zhinvali reservoir supplies about half of Tbilisi's population with drinking water.
Jinvali water reservoir offers breathtaking sceneries that attract visitors all around the year.

Ananuri was a strong fortress of the feudal lords of Aragvi. The nobility of Aragvi was already established in the 14th century. The weakening of the central government led to the strengthening of individual feudal lords. The people of Rugby became especially active in the 17th century and the first half of the 18th century. The architectural complex of Ananuri was historically a very important and strategic point. Currently, it is one of the best preserved historical and cultural monuments.
