Mt. Tetnuldi (4858 m)  is one of Europe's highest mountains and 48 meters higher than Mont Blanc.The name "Tetnuld" or "Tetnuldi" translates from Svanetian as Wightheared or Blond Mountain, and this name fits very well to the mountain which top has no one black rock spot - it is purely ice and snow.
Climbing Tetnuldi falls under the  category of complexity 2B  and requires the presence of certain experience, determination and courage. The mountain stands apart from the main mountain massif, it is surrounded by several villages, which facilitates the approach and access to Tetnuldi.
