Algeti River
The Algeti (Georgian: ალგეთი) is a 108-kilometre (67 mi) long river in Kvemo Kartli, Georgia, spanning the municipalities of Tetritsqaro and Marneuli. Originating at Mount Kldekari, it flows into the deep rocky valley and then a plain before joining the Kura River as its right tributary. Colorful landscapes of the Algeti valley are protected as the Algeti National Park.[1]
