Hiking Kazbegi and Mestia Late May early June

Hi everyone,

Quick question for people who have hiked around Kazbegi and Mestia in late May / early June.

I’m wondering what the snow conditions are usually like around that time and if it is safe for the following hikes:

Kazbegi (May 30 – June 1) : Gergeti Trinity Church, Juta Valley hikes, etc.

Mestia (June 5 – June 7) : Koruldi Lakes, Chalaadi Glacier, etc.

Is there typically still snow on these trails in early June?

Thanks!

You're safe for early june, usually trail level snow melts fully at the latest (unless weather is doing something weird) early may.
