Elbrus Area Getting there & around

Getting there & away

Public transport is very limited. A daily marshrutka links Terskol and Nalchik (R200, three hours, 8am) returning at noon. Alternatively, take a taxi (R250 to R300) to Tyrnyauz and then a frequent marshrutka to Nalchik. Arrange with tour operators running out of Kislovodsk and Pyatigorsk to use their excursions as a means of getting to and from Elbrus.
