The Caucasus is steeped in history, culture, and unparalleled natural beauty. As you hike these trails, you’re not just walking on dirt and rock—you’re treading the pages of a vast, ancient storybook. You’ll encounter remnants of the past and symbols of the area’s rich heritage. But it’s crucial to remember that these tokens of time aren’t souvenirs.
The old adage take only photos, leave only footprints sums up the ideal approach. The best souvenir is the memory of the place, untouched and unspoiled, preserved in its raw beauty for future generations.
