Kazbegi is a mountaineer's first love

Kazbegi is a mountaineer's first love

Mountains, like the sea, do not tolerate the weak and hesitant, and punish for carelessness and pride. Kazbeg, which has become the starting point for many eminent climbers, and now with calm greatness waits for decisive and persistent people who will rise to its summit and forever give their hearts to the mountains and the cause of mountaineering. Our one-day tour to the foot of Kazbeg to enjoy the breathtaking views of the Georgian military road. Hear about the achievements of climbers. Try to find out how this passion is born “to go to the mountains again and again”. Kazbeg is over five thousand meters, it is capricious and does not always allow you to see and remember the cold greatness of the ice ridges and the alpine meadows sparkling with green grass around! Kazbeg remembers the real male friendship, hidden traps-cracks, remembers both the courage and perseverance of fragile women who chose neither female professions.
