сельское поселение Эльбрус

Elbrus rural settlement occupies the upper Baksan River valley in Kabardino-Balkaria, within the central Greater Caucasus. The valley runs through Elbrus National Park, a high-mountain protected area whose roads and trails lead towards the slopes of Mount Elbrus, the 5,642-metre summit that is Europe’s highest peak. This is Balkar country: the Turkic-speaking Balkar people have long lived in these mountain valleys, and their heritage remains part of local life. Rather than an urban resort, the settlement is a practical base in a narrow corridor of conifer woods, steep ridges and fast water, with larger ski centres farther up the Baksan valley.
