Known locally as Mkinvartsveri, “the mountain of eternal ice”, Kazbek rises above Stepantsminda on the border with Russia. Georgia’s third-highest peak is one of the most accessible 5,000-metre summits in the world: a true high-altitude climb that is ideal for first-time mountaineers and seasoned climbers alike.
In summer, most climbers reach Kazbek’s summit on foot. We go up on skis in spring, then drop more than 3,000 metres of wild, untouched off-piste terrain through glaciers and deep powder snow. A true challenge for passionate ski mountaineers, and one of the most spectacular descents anywhere in the Caucasus.
