One of the most pivotal mountains to Georgian climbing culture is Mt. Kazbek, located in Stepantsminda region. Our 7 day climbing trip to the summit is the ideal experience for both first time mountain climbers and experienced climbers alike. The majestic mountain is visible from the valleys of Stepantsminda, leading the local people to regard Mt. Kazbek as “Mtkinvartsveri” which translates to “the constant ice on the top.” It is situated right in between the border of Georgia and Russia, in the heart of the Eastern Caucasus. At an altitude of 5,054m, it makes for the third highest mountain in the country of Georgia. Although its one of the highest peaks here, it is also one of the easiest peaks to climb above 5,000m.
This 7 day ski tour through Mt. Kazbeki (5054m) (the third highest mountain in Georgia) presents a challenge for the passionate ski mountaineer. Mt. Kazbeki is usually summited in the summer season by climbers on foot and with crampons (check out our Mt. Kazbek summer climb). But what could be better than reaching the summit of one of the Eastern Caucaus’s highest peaks on skis, in the knowledge that you have the pleasure of a wild 3000m off-piste descent? This ski mountaineering tour with The Alpine Project is an amazing opportunity to summit one of the most majestic peaks on skis, and carve back down a spectacular line across unbelievable glacial environments and deep powder snow.
