This is Caucasus


The Upper Svaneti region is known for its unique medieval defensive tower houses and picturesque mountain scenery. The region is situated on the southern slopes of the central Caucasus Mountains and is surrounded by 3,000–5,000 metres (MASL) peaks, with four of the 10 highest peaks of the Caucasus located in the region. The Svaneti Range, which is almost as high as the main Caucasus range, separates the Upper and Lower Svaneti regions. Some of the prominent peaks in the Upper Svaneti region include Mount Shkhara, the highest mountain in Georgia at 5,201 meters, Tetnuldi at 4,974 meters, Mount Ushba at 4,710 m, Ailama at 4,525 m, as well as Lalveri and Latsga. The region is also home to the Enguri River Valley and the township seat of Mestia. The most popular climbing peaks in Svaneti include Mt. Laila, Tetnuldi, Banguriani, and Ahalgazrdoba.
