It takes about 3.5 hours to go north from Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, by shared bus or marshrutka. The church is located in Kazbegi, about 10km from the border with Russia. Kazbegi is the name of the area, and the name of the village where tourists stay is Stepantsminda. Because it is a mountainous area at an altitude of about 1,700m, it is cool even in midsummer, and the weather is unstable, so weather forecasts are unreliable. When visiting, don't forget to bring a removable jacket and rain gear. You can get from Stepantsminda to Gergeti Trinity Church by taxi, but if you want to fully enjoy the rich natural beauty, hiking is recommended! It took about 1.5 hours one way, and I was able to climb even in my familiar sneakers. *The route from the church to Mount Kazbegi, which is about 5,000m above sea level, is a full-fledged mountain climbing course. The mountain was so beautiful, like a carpet of green, and the view of the church after a hard day was also amazing. Mt. Kazbegi also showed its summit for just 10 minutes, which felt like a reward for completing the hike. 🎁 Visited: July 2024 #Nature and Spectacular Scenery #100 Travel Styles #Overseas Travel #Caucasus #Georgia #Kazbegi #Stepantsminda #Gergeti #Church #Trinity Church

If you are looking for an easy day hike from Kazbegi with maximum scenic reward? Truso Valley is the perfect choice. This 21 km round trip hike passes through a dramatic steep-sided canyon before entering the wide valley and leading to a crumbling hilltop fortress. There is plenty of interest along the way, including abandoned villages, monasteries, and colourful travertine mineral springs. The trail is mostly flat with fantastic mountain views all around, and it’s just 40 minutes drive from Kazbegi. #hiking #mountain #awesomepic

Located near to Mount Kazbegi, 2200 meters above sea level the view at the church is magnificent. If you’re planning to visit here for a quick getaway from Tbilisi city, its advisable to take a day tour because they will stop by few other places that considered as must visit in Georgia like Ananuri Fortress and Russia-Georgia Friendship monument. They can also drop you in Gergeti village if you’re planning to stay for few days. If you keen to drive from Tbilisi it will take around 4 hours but you have to be an expert of driving as the road is full with lorry and sometimes sheep too. Its worth to stay for few days too in Gergeti village as you can walk around the village, hike to the church and got to enjoy the view more. The road is super bumpy from the base to the church so if you easily get motion sickness bring your motion sickness medicine with you. #mountain #georgia #kazbegi #tbilisi #quickgetaway

Have you ever been to Georgia? It is worth visiting this country at least to see the incredible Kazbek Mountain! At 5,034 m (16,515 ft) high, Mount Kazbek is the highest mountain in Eastern Georgia. It also the second-highest volcanic summit in the Caucasus, after Mount Elbrus. At the foot of the mountain there is a small town of Stepantsminda, from where you can start trekking along Kazbek and enjoy the beautiful views of the Caucasus mountains! #georgia #europe #mountain #mytripvlog #travel

#georgia #scenery Gergeti Church is located at the top of a mountain. It's kind of a long hike to get there. The hike is a bit difficult at the beginning before you reach the main road, but it's worth the effort. You also have the option to take ride up or down, or both for extra money. There is no entrance fee or any payment needs to be done. I won't advice you to drive all the way up with your car. You can park and take another 4x4 van or hike. Keep traveling and enjoy

Rooms Hotel Kazbegi is 5 stars hotel surrounded by snow mountains. We had such a wonderful stay!! The room was in good size, not spacious, but not too cramped either. The view from the room was absolutely beautiful. But I think the bed and pillows were not that comfortable (comparing to other 5 stars hotel). The lobby and the restaurant both offered stunning view of snow mountain. Breakfast was delicious. It was a buffer but everything they put on was tasty and seem like a high quality food. Dinner was also delicious and not expensive. The highlight of Room Hotel, for me, was outdoor hot tube and indoor swimming pool. It was very special, nothing like I have ever seen before. I can spend a week here and not get bored. Noted: Mountain view room is 70 USD more expensive than the one with no mountain view.

Getting There - by car or by bus Attractions - mountains, mountains and mountains, on the top one of the mountains is a church, wich was built in 14th century Hotels - there is lot of choices, for me I stayed in Tamta's guesthouse, it was way better than just guesthouse Food & Restaurants - not really liked any #2023travelwish #tripblazers #georgia #本地遊 #mytripvlog #kazbegi #winterdestination

What a view in Georgia! Driving hours from Tbilisi to Kazbeki was incredible and exciting experience. The weather was great and the view was amazing. I stayed in a friendly homestay and found that local people were so kind and nice even though they can speak little English. #stepantsminda #kazbeki #georgia #gergetitrinitychurch #roadtrip

Mount Kazbek or Mount Kazbegi is a dormant stratovolcano and one of the major mountains of the Caucasus, located on the Russian-Georgian border - in Russia's North Ossetia region and Georgia's Kazbegi District.

#hiking #unforgettableexperiences #momentsmission #georgia #travelinspiration #naturalwonders When you look at the #church from afar, it looks like an ancient castle from fairy-tales, hidden in the #mountains . And indeed it is ancient, since it was built in the XIV century. When enemies were attacking, all the valuables from all over the country were brought to this place. The locals believe that it’s saint and actually magical. And this is really unexplainable and indescribable experience when you get up there to the church. You literally smell the the spirit of antiquity. Even though there are lots of tourists there, parishioners and church workers look like they still live in the older days. This place made a strong impression on me. It’s a pity the time was limited, but I’m happy I got the chance to see and actually visit it. It’s a perfect place to just sit, relax, reflect, and think about eternity. The best way to get there is definitely by car. The car will get you to the foot of Mount Kazbek and from there you can either walk or hire a van that will take you right to your destination.

#hiking #momentsmission #unforgettableexperiences #travelinspiration #georgia A small village of Kazbegi (or Stepantsmida, as the locals prefer to call it) is situated at the foot of Mount Kazbek. It’s a small settlement but with lots of things to do. First of all is the view. There are hotels with rooms facing Mount Kazbek. They are quite pricy but the view is absolutely worth it. If you are not willing to pay, you may just take a walk there and chat with some local people. They might even let you ride their horse if you are not scared. Another thing you can do there is #skiing . This is a breathtaking and unforgettable experience to ski through the snows of Kazbegi. Besides, one of my acquaintances who has seen lots of #mountains said that Kazbek is the most mesmerizing one. And it is true indeed.

After a long, steep climb in 32 degrees, we reached the view point of the glacier below mount Kazbeg. The route is clear and very busy. It can be difficult terrain at times, so walking boots and poles are advised. Climb time from the gergeti church was 2 1/2 hours and 1 1/2 hours descent. Very well worth the effort for amazing unrivalled views. #givethanks #givethanks

The Caucasus Mountains are the place where the myth of Prometheus, who gave humans eternal fire but was punished by Zeus's wrath by being tied to Mount Kazbegi and having his liver pecked out by eagles, is embedded. ▫️How refreshing it was to come out of the hot spring pool♨️ and feel the cold air after swimming.. 🍕Food Breakfast wasn't bad, but the steak I ordered for dinner was just so-so. #Ho-kang-seu #Georgia-travel #Kazbegi #Ho-kang-seu
