'''Road to [[Lentekhi]]'''
 
The road isn't really a road, there is literally no traffic and your average speed in a vehicle is about 5 km however if you have time and patience hitchhiker it is a lot of fun and extraordninarily beautiful. Somewhere 10 or so kilometers after Ushguli you'll cross a mountain pass and descend quite a lot on a serpentine road. There's a beautiful glacier there but the real interesting thing with this place is the abondonded Soviet war-poison factory which, literally, has just been left to rot with poison spread out everywhere on the ground. It's probably not harmful to just go there for a quick visit. Atleast hitchhiker [[Theo]] didn't metamorph yet.
 
''Personal experience'' We started from hitching from Ushguli and after 1 hour the first car that came stopped and gave us a 5 km ride to the middle of nowhere. Then we ended up waiting for 3 hours before the next car came and he took us about 30 km to his village.
