Kazbegi Essentials

Kazbegi, centered around the town of Stepantsminda, is defined by the 14th-century Gergeti Trinity Church and the 5,054-meter dormant stratovolcano, Mount Kazbek. The region is traversed by the historic Georgian Military Road, which leads through the Darial Gorge toward the Russian border. Key natural features include the travertine formations of Truso Valley, the Gveleti waterfalls, and the high-altitude ski slopes of Gudauri. Historical landmarks like the 16th-century Sno Fortress and the Soviet-era Friendship Monument provide insight into the area's strategic and political history.
