Re: Kayaking in Georgia
ThI think the river i paddled was just north of Mtskheta.I cant remember its name. I travelled up north as far as Kasbegi. Close to Kasbegi there was some really nice steep stuff with amazing scenery. South ossetia and Akhbazia are obviously out of bounds but the rivers I was pointed out seem to be ...
