Fisht, Mountain peak in western Caucasus, Russia
The mountain reaches an elevation of 2,867 meters and features limestone formations with multiple glaciers covering its northern and southern slopes.
Mount Fisht emerged from the ancient Tethys Ocean, forming coral reefs that transformed into limestone through geological processes over millions of years.
Local Adyghe tribes designated Mount Fisht as a place of spiritual connection, integrating the peak into their traditional ceremonies and narratives.
The climbing season extends from June through October, with multiple routes ranging from category 1B to 6A available for different skill levels.
Mount Fisht contains the White Star cave system, which ranks among Russia's deepest caves and continues to yield geological discoveries since 1994.
