The ascent to the Atsunta Pass (3520 m), the highest point of our trekking trip in Georgia, is quite exhausting because of the altitude and the muddy path. The path meanders through scree and blocks gradually upwards. After 2-3 hours strenuous ascent we reach the windy pass. This is where the border between Chewsureti and the Tushetian region passes, which now welcomes us. Looking back, we see again in the distance the 5000 m high Kasbeck. A steep path in gravelly lunar landscape leads down to greener fields. Relaxed it then goes over flower meadows and along a mountain stream to the camp, which bears the name Kvachida.
