Less experienced riders will find horses suited to their abilities as well. The saddles are specially designed to enhance comfort throughout the trail, featuring a hybrid design between English and typical Asian saddles. Additionally, saddle bags are available for your convenience. Horses Riding the Tusheti horses of Georgia is an unparalleled experience, deeply rooted in the region's ancient traditions. These horses, known for their resilience and sure-footedness, navigate the rugged landscapes of the Tusheti mountains with ease.

TOILETRIES AND MEDICAL • Towel. • Hand Sanitizer • Wet wipes. • Personal medical kit with antiseptic cream, pain relief tablets and sticking plasters. Moisture absorbing baby powder can be useful to prevent chafing. Compeed blister plasters work well on sore patches, acting as a second skin.
