Mount Kazbek

Kazbek (5047m), one of the highest and most beautiful peaks of the Caucasus is situated in the eastern part the central Caucasus. The Kazbek region has many summits over 4000 metres and remains of the most important mountaineering and trekking destinations in the Caucasus. Mt. Kazbek is also known as “Mkinvartsveri” (‘mountain of glaciers’) - by its Georgian name – it has nine glaciers. We offer a 5 day climbing trip to its summit. The summit is not technically difficult to climb but Mt. Kazbek is considered a serious mountain and good physical condition and basic mountaineering experience is required.
