Visit to the town of Stepantsminda

Stepantsminda is a quaint mountain town at the base of the great Mount Kazbeg, one of Georgia’s highest peaks and a firm favourite with mountain climbers visiting the region in season. The journey up to Stepantsminda is very scenic and we’ll stop along the way to enjoy the views as we climb higher and high into the Caucasus mountains on ever-more winding roads. On arrival  we’ll have lunch followed by a hike up to the Trinity Church.
