A cold wind pushes across the high meadows as you step off the minivan in Stepantsminda; the Caucasus unfold like a raw, stony script. On day one you climb from Juta across 8 km of alpine pasture and scree to Chaukhi Pass (3,338 m), where slate ridgelines and a sudden bowl of sky demand a long look. The mountains here feel alive—rivers dare you to cross on stepping stones, and the cliffs seem to rearrange the weather on a whim.

This is a challenging 3-day itinerary with sustained ascents to 3,300 m; participants should be fit and have experience with long day hikes.
Experienced local guides lead the tour and typically speak English; they handle navigation, logistics and safety decisions.
