Koruldi Lakes, Mountain lakes in Mestia Municipality, Georgia.
The group of alpine lakes sits at an elevation of 2,740 meters, reflecting the snow-covered peaks of Mount Ushba and Tetnuldi in their waters.
The lakes stand as natural markers along ancient pathways used by Svaneti inhabitants to traverse the high mountain passes of the Greater Caucasus range.
Local Svan communities maintain traditional practices of seasonal grazing near the lakes, continuing centuries-old pastoral traditions in the Georgian highlands.
Visitors can reach the lakes through a 16-kilometer round-trip hike from Mestia or by arranging transportation in a four-wheel-drive vehicle for 150 GEL.
The water bodies create mirror-like reflections of four major Caucasus peaks: Shkhara, Tetnuldi, Ushba, and Laila, all exceeding 4,000 meters in height.
