Why visit
Horses are still a practical way to get around Tusheti, and the hardy Tushetian breed is closely linked to the region. Rides from Omalo can reach Dartlo, Shenako or high pastures in a day, and longer guided trips link several villages.
What to expect
Riding lets you cover more ground than on foot while still leaving the road behind. Most guesthouses can arrange a horse and a local guide.
