Parsma
ფარსმა
A remote stone-tower village deep in the Pirikiti valley, and the end point of the classic multi-day hike from Omalo to Parsma.
Parsma lies in the upper Pirikiti–Alazani valley, about 25 km from Omalo. Stone towers and houses are scattered across the valley terraces, surrounded by alpine meadows and glacier-fed rivers. The classic trail starts in Omalo and passes through Dartlo, Dochla, Chigo and other villages before reaching Parsma. It usually takes 2 to 3 days, with guesthouse accommodation along the way. Continuing higher, you can reach Girevi, or cross Atsunta Pass at about 3,400 m to Shevsureti. That crossing requires a guide and border permit. A four-wheel-drive vehicle also covers the route in about 2 hours one way.
