インナーカルトリ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ17

Useful track to keep heading East from Uplistsikhe, however, it's a pretty bumpy ride. The route is very rutted and makes for very slow going (as well as sore wrists). That being said, it offers stunning views of the river and northern mountains, so if you're not in a rush and have an appropriate touring/gravel bike - then go for it.

Not far from Gori lies the ancient cave city of Uplistsikhe. People settled on the plateau as early as the Bronze Age. The fortress city was founded in the 6th century BC and developed into a trading center on the Silk Road with approximately 5,000 inhabitants. The oldest surviving written reference dates back to the 1st century. Attempts to conquer Uplistsikhe repeatedly failed; it wasn't until the 13th century that the Mongol ruler Ögedei Khan succeeded in capturing and destroying the city (Wikipedia).

Entrance fee: €5 per person. Open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Campsite available at the nearby campsite or at the top of the hill before the park entrance.
