    Road leading to Fiagdon

    Posted by dondelion 20 August 2009

    Great views of the Caucasus mountains in the distance and the road runs alongside the river Fiagdon. There are several decent restaurants along the road all serving Ossetian cuisine. Many of the villages are old so keep an eye out for ancient towers and other buildings. Fiagdon is a small ex mining town and not worth visiting so continue through it to the hamlet of Harisdjin. Here there are nice spots for shashlik and several paths/roads further into the mountains. Past Harsidjin up a steep slope is a picturesque shrine to the Virgin Mary and some ruins of gardens. Nice fishing and cycling here too.

    Turn off the road which leads from Vladikavkaz to Alagir
