North Ossetia, like its crown jewel capital city Vladikavkaz, sparkles like a small gem in the North Caucasus. Tucked in at the feet of some of the most spectacular mountains in the range, it offers a spread of options to travelers. Tourists may enjoy the history and local flavor of Vladikavkaz, or prefer alpine hikes just out their back door. To discuss this region with us we hear from Dima Lemeshev, a local tour guide with over 15 years experience. He lets us in on the best places to stay and eat, at both the high and low end, as well as the top sites to see. If North Ossetia is in your future travel plans, take a listen. If it isn’t yet, maybe it should be!
