Mount Beshtau with its five peaks is a dormant volcano located at the foot of which lies the resort city of Pyatigorsk. Shrouded in myths and legends, the mountain has long been a popular destination for hiking routes.
Ascending to the summit of Beshtau is relatively easy and does not require special mountaineering skills. Every day, hundreds of hiking and climbing enthusiasts ascend here through various routes and trails.
About 70 years ago, uranium ore was actively mined here, and the remnants of those times are preserved in the form of sealed mines and ventilation shafts. Talks of radiation have been circulating as an urban legend for a long time. However, regular checks of the radiation background by specialized services as well as enthusiasts show that the radiation levels on the mountain are within the normal range.
But you can definitely experience an overdose of beauty and stunning views. Along the way to the summit, there are several incredibly picturesque viewing platforms.
