The pillars of Sairme are a rock massif in the region of Racha - Lechkhumi, Georgia. 

The region of Lechkhumi is rich with remarkable natural and historical monuments. Among them is one of the natural monuments, the rocky massif- Sairme Pillars.

I first learned about this place back in 2022, during our weekned trip to the region of Racha. I hired the local driver to take me here. I didnt hike here, just was flying DJI mavic air 2 around. 

The are seems like an easy hike route.
