A tree top walk will soon make its way through the trees and up to the sun and offer a unique nature experience in Georgia’s Lagodekhi Protected Area, reports Georgia’s Agency of Protected Areas.
The wooden construction of the tree top walk will be integrated into the forest. It will lead visitors up to the crowns of the trees and will enable them to discover a unique forest of Lagodekhi National Park from a different point of view.
As Georgia’s Agency of Protected Areas reports, the tree top walk design is already completed and the length of the circular path will be 500 meters.
The tree top walk includes towers, air trial, bridges, educational and interactive portals.
It has been announced that the tree top walk should serve about 60,000 – 100,000 visitors per year.
The project is financed by Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, a German government-owned development bank the World Wildlife Fund and Transboundary Joint Secretariat in South Caucasus.
The days are getting shorter and the temperatures are dropping, meaning autumn is here, bringing with it colourful leaves, fresh air and renewed opportunities to get outside and enjoy nature.
Camera traps in Georgia’s national parks and protected areas are continuing to spot various wild animals in the country’s uninhabited land.
Developments are in place to transform Lagodekhi Protected Area in the eastern Kaheti region into a popular spot for nature enthusiasts while growing the dwindling population of endangered species.
After Kazbegi and Borjomi, the European Union’s (EU) pilot project is starting in Georgia’s Lagodekhi municipality, allowing the country to provide better rural services and jobs in agriculture, eco-tourism and rural business.
Visitors of the Lagodekhi Protected Area in the eastern Georgian region of Kakheti can learn about its biodiversity, ecosystems, flora and fauna while following a newly opened interpretive trail through the recreational area.
