South Ossetia

Last updated: 2019

South Ossetia, a disputed territory in the South Caucasus, offers remote mountain scenery, traditional villages, and a glimpse into a region largely untouched by mass tourism. Visitors may explore natural sites like the Caucasus Mountains and alpine valleys, as well as cultural landmarks such as medieval towers and Orthodox churches. Due to limited international recognition and restricted access, tourism in South Ossetia is minimal and best suited for adventurous travelers with an interest in geopolitics and off-the-beaten-path destinations.
