Inside Europe's HIGHEST VILLAGE (Ushguli, Svaneti, Georgia)
Vložit
- čas přidán 11. 06. 2021
- Inside Ushguli village in Svaneti, Georgia. This is the highest permanently inhabited point in Europe! Driving through some of the most remote and dangerous roads in the Caucasus we head up to 2100m and the beautiful village of Ushguli.
The village is completely shut off from the outside world for more than 6 months of the year and the local people have to live off what they grow in the summer months. Ushguli is also one of the most stunning places we have ever seen, we incredible views over the High Caucasus mountain range and Georgia's highest peak - Mount Shkhara (5193 metres).

I would say Galápagos for me! 🐢 It’s not the most remote place as it’s not too hard to get to!
@@aimeecosson9473 i think it’s remote place because of the hard road that leads to Ushguli

Thank you so much Maria, we love your country 😍❤️
What an incredibly beautiful spot! I so hope the village can recover and those ancient homes can be restored - although I can appreciate the danger of landslides and avalanches! That road was breathtaking - I would never have the courage to drive it! Thanks for your videos, from Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Hi Elizabeth, thank you so much, so glad you are enjoying our videos 😍❤️
We really do to, so much potential to make the village in to a real tourist hot-spot 😊 they are slowly but surely upgrading the road, our driver said 2 years and it should be fully paved 🙏🏻😊
Love to Canada! 😍

Beautiful mountains 😍
They are the most incredible we've ever seen! But we haven't seen the Himalayas in Pakistan yet 😉😀
Really remote and beautiful place. ❤️
It is absolutely breathtaking 😍❤️
Greetings from New Jersey! You are living the life ! Thanks for bringing it to my shiny bright screen :-) I dig travel and travel vlogs. Subscribed ,and will now explore the past videos !
Cheers Shailesh, welcome to the channel ❤️
Georgia is full of natural beauty and full of ❤️ beautiful girls
❤️❤️❤️
Wow what a lovely place! ❤
It is absolutely stunning there 😍🥰
Gorgeous!
Without a doubt the most beautiful place we've seen 😊
Such a beautiful view by drone 😍
Was so proud of these drone shots, my best so far 😊 but then again in that place its hard not to get good shots 😊
Wow! Now that looks like paradise! Scary roads though. Difficult for my mind to correlate your remarks on the heat with the snowy peaks in the background. Held my breath for you crossing that stream Julia ... 😁😉
It is absolutely stunning there, we didn’t know where to look 😧🥰
The roads were dodgy, apparently they used to be even worse. I would have gotten out of the car and walked if that was the case haha!
We were thinking that as well, sort of doesn’t make sense when you are so hot but can see the snow not so far from where you are 😅
Oh Johan, you should’ve seen 15 minute part that I had to cut out when I just couldn’t do it , I was walking around from one place to another hahahah
Shame Julia! Maybe some part of me was hoping for a mishap in that stream... 😁😁😁 Matt should have done the honorable thing and bought himself some points carrying you across; but maybe he was also secretly wishing for a mishap to capture on video? hahaha
another perfect video !
It’s so incredible this places from Chile 💕
Thank you! Love to Chile 🥰
Hi I'm Georgian and I'm glad that u like our country

Hello to my new favorite travel blogger. 😁
I tend to stay away from remote places when I travel, even in my own country. Lol. Keep safe you guys, and stay away from misadventures like that horseback riding experience.
Haha, this was very remote for sure 😀
Thank you so much Ricky, we will definitely stay away from the horses 😂
Wowwwwwww new video uploaded today 🥰🥰🥰

What a beautiful heaven is this.

Thank you very Much Bhupender 😊
The people there are far more free than the average person living in England.
Haha, this is very true as of early 2021 😁
Naah, that's not a freedom
@@jeffery4345 Why not?
Because, their minds not free
@@jeffery4345 How so?
Love from India , himachal Pradesh
Lots of love to India! ❤️🤗
Hello I love the videos you post.This place you are now is beautiful.I would love to see this in person.The roads are awful there,looks like they are just making them
Thank you so much 😊
They are slowly but surely upgrading the road to Ushguli, maybe in a couple of years it wil be paved 😊
Second highest settlement in Europe , first one is also in Georgia with only one resident. Do not drive up in Ushguli unless its a clear sunny weather
Ah so interesting! What’s the name of the other settlement?
Yeah, we were waiting for the weather to get better and for the roads to dry for 3 days 😧
@@MattandJulia Its called Bochorna in tusheti region getting closer to Geo- Rus border
Very interesting, never heard about it before! Thank you so much for sharing 🙌🏼
@@MattandJulia most welcome :)
thats (of course) the most beautiful remote places YOU have been. Ushguli has become a tourist HOTspot! open your eyes!
Greetings from Morocco
Sending lots of love to Morocco! ❤️
Incredible!! What month was it?
The highest settlement in Europe is a village Bochorna, at tusheti region, u must go there, that will be absolutely different experience for u,
Welcome to Georgia!
Thanks so much for the advice Tornike 😊
Recent rec'd by YT. Watching from beginning & happy to pay for education & entertainment
Thank you so much!!! 🥰 That really means the world to us! ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏼
Hermosa lugar montañoso.
Muchas gracias Fermin 🙌😊
There are tough people living in Svaneti but they are kind at heart
Muy bonito
Love your videos
Thank you so much, means the world to us ☺️♥️
Lovely❤ place
❤️❤️❤️
How did you discover this remote village? How did you find accommodations to stay? Did you have to book in advance to stay in room there? Is the trek ever physically too difficult for either of you?
How do prepare for all this walking? Of course being young makes it easier.
I am much, much older, senior citizen age and would not attempt it.
Could when I was young though.
Do you also take still photos or only videos?
Amazing videos i love it very much 🥰 one question how much you pay the driver for taking you mestia to ushguili ???
Thank you so much 😊 we think it was 40GEL x
U've missed the main thing, შხარას მყინვარი ( Shkhara glacier) the one u saw from Ushguli.
Yeah, we wish we'd had time to hike there but unfortunately we only had a few hours 😔
Thank you for your video! What month was your video shot in? Thinking about going in Sep...wondering if it will be very green at the time?
Less so unfortunately! This was in May, we have also been in September and it was a big difference xxx
I have helped with the maintenance of the Cumbres & Toltec narrow-gauge railroad equipment (a living museum) in Chama, New Mexico at 2,899 meters in the southern Rocky Mountains pf Northern New Mexico. From there, I rode by train to Osier, Colorado, a former toll road stop and railroad stop that has a restaurant for the train passengers. Nearby is the Toltec Gorge, where I was able to watch a rotary snow plow clear 12 foot snow drifts in May to open the railroad up for the summer.
That is absolutely incredible! Thank you so much for sharing!
Best video yet; spectacular scenery. Your Russian language skills appear to have been vital to making this trip. It reminded me of the area around Peshawar, Pakistan but much greener. We want to visit Turkey and Georgia next year; especially if the BTK (Baku, Tbilisi, Kars) train begins offering passenger service.
Thanks so much Dennis! 🙌 Yeah definitely, it's been really helpful both in the Georgia and Armenia so far😊
Ahhh, sounds incredible! Hopefully they do! Also, you can take the train from Ankara to Kars as well right? Would be an awesome adventure 😊
Beutiful place 👍
Is it incredible for sure 🥰
@@MattandJulia I am planning to visit Georgia near about August.
Perfect time of year up in the mountains if you like hiking 😊😊😊
The gushing water stream indicates Summer time, Can you tell us which month was it filmed?
Good
Thanks!
Just curious, how did the two of you meet each other? You seem like such a nice couple.
Hi Suzanne, thank you so much, we met on seperate holidays in Turkey 9 years ago, and it blossomed from there 🥰❤️
Thanks a lot for sharing this video
Questions:
How did you get to Ushguli ? How much u pay to get there ?
Second: this Ushguli is very well known for making cheese . Did u find any farmer who sells cheese from Ushguli ?
This looks quite similar to Himachal Pradesh state of India. Great vlog 👍👍🇮🇳
Thank you very much! Would love to visit Himachal Pradesh 🤗😊
Great video, but Europe's highest village is in Tusheti, Bochorna (Georgia)
I would imagine that life is very hard for the locals, especially in the winter.
yeah definitely!
Which month is best for visiting Ushguli?
Taste like water 🤣🤣 is epic
😉😁😁😁
