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: Hiya! My name is Álvaro and I'm from Spain, 34. Long distance hiker, always ready to have some good laugh and enjoy nature together. Birdwatcher - I always carry binoculars around to check stuff in long distance. I like staying overnight in both tents or guesthouses. For me, there is no need to have a rushed pace bearing in mind the route to do in the day. Balance is always the key.
When do I visit: Late August-mid September 2026
Who am I looking for: Buddies for mainly visiting Tusheti and Svaneti. The routes I am keen on covering are Omalo-Shatili with maybe an extension to Juta.

Who am I looking for: Anyone really with experience, self sufficient. I love listening so if you talk a lot, I'm a great listener and would love to listen to you talk about literally anything. And honestly someone that appreciates silence sometimes, and nature.
Who am I: My name is Mariel, I am an experienced hiker and mountain guide. I will be doing self supported multi day treks in Svaneti combined with mountaneering when possible. I am comfortable trekking by myself but I am happy to have a buddy or two. I enjoy remote multi day treks with low traffic. I also carry mountaneering equipment for glacier crossing and peak attempts if the right buddy and opportunity arises. I am super chill, enjoy a calm pace. Because of the weight I carry, I can rarely do more than 20km a day. I mostly wild camp except for the ocasional stop in town for provisioning. I have several routes planned but I like to keep the plans flexible for wheather, logistics, length and timing.
When do I visit: July and August 2026
Who am I looking for: A buddy or two with their own gear to be self sufficient. A plus if you're into mountaneering. I am easygoing, cheerful and optimistic, looking for similar buddies who enjoy nature and its elements.
