The legendary Gergeti Trinity Church serves as the most famous silhouette of the entire Caucasus region. This isolated 14th-century stone sanctuary sits dramatically on a high mountain ridge right below the frozen peak of Mount Kazbek.

Beyond its deep spiritual heritage, the high-altitude territory hosts the premier winter sports resort of the country. For example, the vibrant slopes of Gudauri attract skiers and snowboarders from all over the world due to incredible powder snow. In addition, during the summer months, these emerald green peaks become a major hub for thrilling tandem paragliding and downhill mountain biking. For this reason, we heavily feature these slopes in our dynamic Nature & Adventure programs.
