About Mravaltskharo Reservoir

Set amidst the arid, rolling hills of the Gareja semi-desert (near the famous “Rainbow Mountains”), Mravaltskharo Reservoir provides a striking contrast of water against a dry landscape. It’s a remote location that appeals to anglers looking for solitude.

Fishing Tips

  • Weather: Summer can be brutally hot here with no shade. Spring and autumn are the best times to visit for both comfort and fish activity.
  • Bait: Standard carp baits like boilies, corn, and maggots are effective.

Access

The dirt roads leading into the Gareja area can turn to thick, impassable mud after rain. It is highly recommended to check weather forecasts and travel in a capable 4x4 vehicle.
