Kazbegi National Park

Kazbegi National Park is a protected area in the Mtskheta-Mtianeti region of north-eastern Georgia, encompassing the dramatic landscapes of the Greater Caucasus mountain range. The park occupies Kazbegi Municipality in the historic Khevi region, with its headquarters in the town of Stepantsminda. Established in 1976 as a state reserve and redesignated as a national park following Georgia's independence, the protected area spans a significant portion of the southern slopes of the main Caucasus ridge. The park's terrain is characterized by towering peaks, alpine meadows, deep river valleys, and rugged cliffs that define the southern frontier of the Caucasus. As a high-altitude protected area with its lowest points at approximately 1,400 meters above sea level, Kazbegi preserves one of Georgia's most ecologically significant mountain ecosystems. The region supports a remarkable diversity of endemic plant species and serves as habitat for iconic Caucasus wildlife including the East Caucasian tur, chamois, brown bear, and golden eagle. Beyond its ecological importance, Kazbegi holds substantial cultural significance. The area contains ancient Christian monuments alongside evidence of older pagan traditions, reflecting centuries of human settlement in this mountainous frontier region.
