Paravani is one of the most interesting rivers in Georgia close to the border with Turkey, however the river is VERY polluted.

River sections
Upper
- Put-in: on the right bank of the river, below Akhalkalaki town, at the bridge made of train wagon.
- Take-out: on the right bank of the river, below the most difficult rapid
- Length:
- Time: 3 h
- Gradient:
- Difficulty: 4-4+
- Last update: 2012 r.
The river flows close to the road all the time, one can road scout most of the rapids. The beginning is quite easy, then there is a rapid with an undercut in the middle - one can portage on the right bank of the river.
Afterwards river gets steeper, boulder gardens and large holes. Most of the rapids can be scouted from kayak. Warning: in 2012 there were some construction works, and some concrete/metal obstacles in the river!
At the end the most difficult section, steep and with large holes. It's difficult to setup a safety - on the left bank there is an undercut. You can scout from the left (there is last eddy on the left).
It's worthwhile to do also the lower section.
Lower
- Put-in: at the end of the upper section
- Take-out: close to Khertvisi village, an the right bank of the river, close to the river mouth (there is also a castle on the left bank).
- Length: 10 km
- Time: 2 h
- Gradient:
- Difficulty: 2+ - 3+ (4-)
- Last update: 2012 r.
The section is definitely easier than the upper one, mainly class 3, but with few more difficult rapids.
