People sometimes ask me if they could join my group or "tour". That's understandable. Hiking alone is not for everybody, it's more dangerous and ... well... lonely. But I am happy if I make it to Georgia for a few weeks in summer and always have a group. So, let's try something. If you are looking for a trekking partner, fill in the form below and I will post yours ad here. Other visitors will then be able to contact you through the contact form. Just keep in mind your ad won´t appear here immediately, give me a day or two. And also, for last-minute ads, ones where are you looking for a buddy for a next few days, it is much more effective just to post in the discussion group.
Who am I: Hi! I'm a 20-year-old girl currently based in Tbilisi, looking for a female hiking buddy (or a small group of girls) to explore Svaneti or other beautiful mountain trails. I prefer independent, non-commercial treks to keep things budget-friendly. I'd love to do a multi-day hike like Mestia to Ushguli. Let's team up, share transport logistics, and enjoy the mountains together!
When do I visit: October 2026
Who am I looking for: Female travel buddy / Hiker
Who am I: Hi, I’m Tom, 33, from the UK and travelling solo in Georgia from 7–21 October. I’m a fit and fairly experienced hiker, comfortable with long mountain days, rough terrain and some scrambling, but I’m not looking for technical mountaineering. I’m happy doing a multi-day trek, joining up for a few stages or day hikes, or just coordinating transport/accommodation with someone heading the same way.
When do I visit: 7–21 October
Who am I looking for: The main aim of the trip is to get a good few days hiking in the Caucasus, weather permitting. I’m currently looking at Svaneti — potentially Mestia to Ushguli or some alternative stages around Mestia/Mazeri — and/or Kazbegi, Juta and Truso. I’m deliberately keeping the exact route flexible because of the time of year and the possibility of early snow. I’m fairly relaxed about pace and plans — mainly looking for some good company and a bit of safety in numbers on the quieter routes rather than necessarily travelling together for the whole trip. If anyone is around in early/mid October with similar plans, give me a shout.
