Price per person from: Book the tour

Meteo station Betlemi Hut (3653 m) is a mountain refuge located on Mount Kazbegi in Georgia. The destination is well-known for both acclimatization and mountaineering expeditions. The base camp is an ideal spot for climbers looking to prepare for the high-altitude climb of Mt. Kazbek.  It is accessible by a hiking trail from Stepantsminda. The hut is situated on the south side of Mount Kazbek, and it provides a base camp from which climbers can acclimatize to the altitude, rest, and gear up for the ascent to the summit of Kazbek.

The Meteo station offers basic accommodation, including dormitory-style sleeping arrangements. You need to bring a sleeping bag and possibly an inflatable mattress for added comfort. Betlemi Hut typically has minimal supplies, so climbers need to bring their food, water, and cooking equipment. Water can be obtained from melting snow. Basic amenities comprise a kitchen and a shared area. Facilities are simple, so expect a basic experience.
