Introducing Dombay

Zooming through a winding narrow and forested valley, visitors to Dombay are suddenly confronted with a sheer wall of mountains crowned with white shark-teeth summits. This is the heart of the Caucasus. Only those blasé about mountains would fail to be knocked off their perches by this stupendous vista.

Not only can you gawk from the bottom but also easily at 3000m, where you can scan snow peaks, glaciers and distant views.

Skiing, walking, hiking, climbing and plain sightseeing are what attract visitors. New hotels and cafés are being built for an increasing number of visitors; during the peak ski season, late December to April, hotels can be full and prices can triple.

Dombay is at the heart of Teberdinsky Nature Reserve (admission R20) which is rich in flora and fauna.
