Kintrishi and Mtirala protected territories are located on the territory of Ajara, 320-340 km from Tbilisi. Territories include two parts – Kintrishi sanctuary and Mtirala national park. Kintrishi sanctuary was founded in 1959 and Mtirala national park – nearly half a century later, in 2006.
Both, the sanctuary and the park, are rich with diverse flora and fauna.
