Hidden Gems & Waterfalls

The Kazbegi region of the Greater Caucasus offers a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes and glacial runoff. This collection features the 14th-century Gergeti Trinity Church and the Bethlemi Hut, a high-altitude refuge at 3,650 meters on Mount Kazbek. The list also includes several cascades, from the Gveleti waterfalls in the Dariali Gorge to the remote falls of the Sno Valley and the alpine trails near the village of Juta.
