The park, with a total area of more than 8.7 km2, consists of several territories. It is planned to expand the park by combining its constituent parts. The vertical length of the park reaches 4 thousand meters and covers both the Terek River valley and the ecosystems of the highlands.

Здесь очень богата и многолика растительность и фауна. Леса на крутых склонах создают неповторимые пейзажи, сосны и березы широко распространены. Особенно интересной для меня была облепиха, которая произрастает в Теркском ущелье и имеет ценные лечебные свойства. Кроме того, Казбегский национальный парк - дом для многих хищных животных.
Но не только природа делает этот национальный парк особенным. Здесь много альпинистских объектов мирового значения, которые привлекают любителей экстремального туризма со всего мира. И в окрестностях парка много памятников грузинской истории - церквей, замков и других достопримечательностей, а также интересных обычаев и традиций местного населения. Авторы статей описывают всё понятно и интересно!
