The Elbrus region is the pearl of Kabardino-Balkaria and a center of attraction for climbers, skiers, and simply connoisseurs of majestic nature from all over the world. Our travel agency organizes excursions here that allow you to touch the grandeur of Elbrus without being a professional athlete.
The journey starts from Nalchik, and already on the road along the Baksan Gorge, breathtaking views of rocky slopes and the rushing Baksan River open up. The first stop is the Azau Glade, from where a cable car lifts you to an altitude of over three and a half thousand meters. At the top, a fantastic panorama of the Main Caucasus Range unfolds, and in clear weather, the double-headed peak of Elbrus itself is visible — regal and unapproachable. The next point is Mount Cheget, famous among skiers, but even in summer, it is worth ascending for the stunning views of the Baksan Valley. You will visit the Narzan Glade, where healing mineral water gushes straight from the ground, and take a walk through a relict pine forest. Lunch in a high-altitude café with panoramic windows and Balkar cuisine dishes concludes a day full of impressions.
