Travel through the mountains of the Caucasus

• Travel through the mountains of the Caucasus

Mountains - a fresh air and snow-capped peaks, dazzling sun and starry nights, halts, where waiting with impatience, and the sense that you can just about reach the sky. In general, these experiences should experience any inhabitant of our planet.

We were lucky in Russia - we have a lot of mountains and the most important, of course, the Caucasus. They can boast of Elbrus, the highest peak of Russia, and Kazbek mysterious. Caves, mountain passes, mountain villages, serpentines and treacherous rivers of the Caucasus - this whole ordeal. But only once the sunrise here, you realize that it was worth it.

As our beloved sang Vladimir Vysotsky, the best of the mountains can be only mountains, which have not yet visited. So if you have not been in the Caucasus and safely get the stash, collect backpack and friends and head out to conquer the peak of his own spirit. We have collected for your inspiration these spectacular photos.
