Tkibuli Reservoir, reservoir in Georgia
Tkibuli Reservoir is a large body of water in Imereti region, sitting at about 520 meters above sea level and stretching across a broad area. The shoreline is framed by green forests and meadows, while calm waters reflect the surrounding hills and sky.
The reservoir was created by building an earth dam that blocks the natural flow of the Tkibula River and forms a large water basin. Though relatively young itself, it sits in a region with traces of human settlement dating to ancient times and near Tkibuli's mining heritage.
The reservoir is woven into daily life for the town of Tkibuli and surrounding communities. Locals use it for walks, picnics, and quiet moments, reflecting how the water connects people to the rhythms of rural life and the landscape around them.
The reservoir is easy to reach and offers several activities such as walking along the shore, picnicking, and photography at sunrise or sunset. Be aware that swimming or boating may require local permission, so check the rules before using the water.
The water is fed by the Tkibula River and small streams, receiving rainwater throughout the year that keeps it fresh and full. The reservoir offers different views in each season, from snow-covered slopes in winter to green reflections in summer.
