Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park, National park in central Georgia.
Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park is a protected area in central Georgia that covers mountains, forests, and river valleys. The park spans three historic regions and encompasses varied terrain at different elevations.
The area was designated as a protected zone in the late 20th century to safeguard the natural ecosystems of the Caucasus region. This decision reflected Georgian efforts to preserve the land's biological diversity for future generations.
Local communities regard this place as a refuge where traditional ways of life persist in small villages at the park's edge. Visitors encounter people who have lived in close connection with this land for generations, and whose daily culture remains deeply tied to the forests and mountains.
The park offers several marked trails for hiking, horseback riding, and cycling, with shelters and campsites placed along the routes. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and dress for changing weather conditions, as conditions vary depending on the season and elevation.
The landscape spans different elevations that create a diversity of habitats for wildlife such as deer, wild boar, and wolves. Various plant species found only in this region of the Caucasus grow here and can be encountered during walks.
