FIND THE HIKING BUDDY


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: Hello, I’m Aleksandra, I’m 42 years old, and I come from Serbia. I have a deep love for nature and enjoy spending my time hiking and exploring the outdoors.

    When do I visit: 6. 8. 2026- 17. 8. 2026

    Who am I looking for: I’m looking for company for the hike from Mestia to Ushguli between August 9th and 17th. I plan to stay in guesthouses along the way. I have hiking experience, but I feel more comfortable and enjoy the adventure more when I have company.

    Aziz

    Who am I: I'm Aziz, 31, from Saudi Arabia. I work in marketing and communications, so nature is my reset button — and hiking is how I truly disconnect. I've trekked across the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Europe, including 14 days on the Camino de Santiago. Back home I've explored almost every desert in Saudi Arabia off-road and on foot. I'm genuinely curious about people and love getting to know whoever's on the trail beside me. IG: @Abdalazizsaleh

    When do I visit: May - June 2026

    Who am I looking for: Looking for someone to join me on one or both of these adventures: 🐴 Tusheti — 4 days on horseback through one of Georgia's most remote and untouched regions 🥾 Svaneti — Mestia to Ushguli trek over several days through mountain passes, medieval towers, and glacier views. I'm open to either approach — hiring a guide with a full package, or planning it ourselves and figuring it out as we go. Happy to discuss what works best depending on who joins. No specific experience required — good energy and a sense of adventure is enough. Write me and let's see if our plans align.

    Who am I: Hi everyone! My name is Ofek, I'm 21 from Israel, and I'm looking for partners to join me on a trek in the Caucasus. I’ll be in Georgia from **June 26th to July 2nd**. I'm in good physical shape and I’m looking for a trek of around 4 days. **My plan:** I would really love to do the route from **Juta to Roshka** (via the Chaukhi Pass) and from there continue to **Kazbegi** to hike towards the **Gergeti Glacier**. However, I’m open to other trekking suggestions in the area! **Logistics:** I’m planning to camp in the wild. I have my own gear, including a one-person tent, sleeping bag, and a camping stove. If you are around during these dates, have a similar vibe, and want to join forces for all or part of the hike—I’d love to hear from you! Feel free to send me a message.

Not sure yet if its gonna be Svaneti - Tusheti or Racha - or all of them. Vamos!
