Svaneti, Greater Caucasus · Georgia
Ushba
Ushba is a striking twin-summited peak in Georgia's Svaneti region, part of the Greater Caucasus, with a North Summit (4,690 m) and a slightly higher South Summit (4,710 m). Nicknamed the 'Matterhorn of the Caucasus' for its dramatic double-horned silhouette, it is widely regarded as one of the most technically demanding and dangerous mountains in the range.
