Pichori River

The Pichori River is a remarkable waterway located in western Georgia, flowing through the heart of the Kolkheti National Park. Unlike the fast-flowing mountain rivers typical of Georgia, the Pichori is a slow-moving, meandering river that winds its way through dense, almost jungle-like wetland forests before emptying into Lake Paliastomi. This unique ecosystem is a haven for biodiversity, particularly birdlife, making it a prime destination for birdwatching and eco-tourism. The best way to experience the Pichori River is by taking a guided boat tour, which allows visitors to glide silently through the lush vegetation, observing the rich flora and fauna of this ancient Colchian landscape.
