A tourist path will be set up between Turtle Lake and Vake Park. As the Mayor of Tbilisi Kakha Kaladze says on Tuesday at the municipal meeting, Cartu Foundation gave the mentioned project to the municipality.

"The charity foundation Cartu gave a very important project to the municipality as a gift, which aims to arrange a tourist path between Turtle Lake and Vake Park. A modern, high-standard project has already been prepared, which is part of the urban forest development plan of Tbilisi. The project provides the arrangement of bicycle and pedestrian paths to contribute new opportunities for ecotourism. The bicycle lane will be arranged according to the document of the International Mountain Bicycle Federation, and the footpath - according to the national regulations", said the mayor and presented the relevant visual material to the public.

Kaladze notes, that similar projects are very popular abroad.

According to the mayor, natural materials will be used as much as possible in the process of arranging the paths, and the change of terrain and environment will be minimized with iron and concrete covering.

"Since pedestrians often use the Turtle Lake Driveway, this project will improve their safety as well. We will also organize picnic areas in the territory", Kakha Kaladze said.

According to the mayor, the tender will be announced in the near future.
