The Chaukhi Pass, standing tall at 3341 meters, serves as the boundary between Kazbegi region and Khevsureti. Its allure stems from its proximity to the spectacular Chaukhi massif, featuring numerous prominent ridges. Beyond the pass, one can uncover fields featuring captivating stone structures (the Roshka stones), and the Abudelauri lakes - a triad of stunning alpine lakes, each showing distinctive shades of green, blue, and white.
