These vans wait to be hired by visitors bound to Gergeti. Climbing uphill on foot takes about 2 hours and the path is muddy and slippery. These vans often have right side steering wheel as they are bought in second hand to Japan (1/3 less expensive than bought in Europe). The track to the mountain is quite bumpy, mostly as it crosses a village still in the valley.
