You can see some striped rocks or dunes here as well.

Travel Information

If you go from Tbilisi by car the shorter route via Rustavi includes a fairly long dirt road, which is why it takes the same amount of time, so it's better to choose the longer route via Udabno, also because this way you go past Lake Mlashe, which is usually a dried up white salt field at the end of summer, which can be a good photo subject.
