Vam fer fins els llacs per que no teniem més temps. La ruta fantàstica. A primera hora si fa bo, es veu l'Ushba impressionant, desprès s'ennuvola.

A very nice hike with a very impressive scenery. Sometimes very steep and the last bit to the top needs some climbing and is very slippery (a lot of loose rocks). On a warm day you need enough water, even though you can buy some at the lakes

an amazing hike. on the second part from the cross to koruldi lakes there is no shade for a long time, definitely bring enough water as the shop at koruldi lakes is not always open. it is worth it to climb to the very top to see mt ushba, although the climb is quite hard - good shoes and even mittens come handy. the small rocks are very slippery and there is hardly something to catch on to...

Did the trail on 15th November, 2021. With snow around, the scenery looks much more impressive. Have to be really careful from the altitude of 3200m when you have to negotiate cliffs.
