The tour includes easy hikes lasting 2 to 4 hours, mostly on wide paths with no significant elevation gain. The ascent to the Mutso Fortress (approx. 25 minutes) is more challenging, as the narrow, rocky trail requires extra attention, surefootedness, and no fear of heights. For cool evenings in the mountains, warm clothing is recommended, as well as a rain jacket for the unpredictable mountain weather. Sturdy hiking boots are essential, and trekking poles can be useful if needed. Accommodation in Shatili is very basic, with shared bathrooms for multiple rooms.
