Mount Laila in Georgia is suitable for climbing for those who want to start mountaineering. Laila is the peak of the Svan ridge, located parallel to the main Caucasus ridge. Mount Laila is the leading peak among the Svinsky ridge, and its height is 4008 m. It offers stunning views of the entire Caucasus.
The route to Laila is incredibly beautiful: the ascent to the pass passes through the Svan forest, and the base camp before the ascent will be in a clearing overlooking Ushba. If you have enough time, we suggest combining the climb to Laila with our week-long hike in Svaneti.
