Vashlovania semi-desert landscape unique in Georgia
—Weather
What This Place Is
Unlike the wine country of Kakheti around Telavi and Kvareli, Dedoplistsqaro is dry steppe and semi-desert — a completely different natural profile for the region. Vashlovani National Park, with its eroded canyons and distinctive flora and fauna, is a niche but growing draw for lovers of unusual landscapes.
Tourist traffic here differs sharply from the wine tourism of the rest of Kakheti — this is more a destination for those deliberately seeking an atypical natural landscape than a typical vineyard route.
