Lake Tabatskuri

The alpine lake Tabatskuri is located at an altitude of 1991 meters above sea level. The water in the lake is cold all year round.

What kind of lake Tabatskuri

Traveling through Samtskhe-Javakheti you can see a lot of interesting things. Lake Tabatskuri has a special place among local attractions.
The lake is unique in that it has no rivers flowing into it. Surprisingly, none of the Tabaccuri either originates. The reservoir is of volcanic origin, so the entire inflow and outflow of water occurs underground.

Due to the fact that Lake Tabatskuri is high in the mountains, the water in it is cold in winter and summer.
