Mount Akhun

Mount Akhun (Ахун) is a stand-alone mountain in the Khostinsky City District of Sochi, Russia.

Wedged between the Matsesta and Khosta rivers, this karst massif is the highest point of the Sochi littoral.

The peak of Greater Akhun is 663 metres (2,175 ft) above sea level.

The tower offers panoramic views of the Western Caucasus as far south as Gagra and Pitsunda.

The mount was apparently sacred for the local Ubykh community.
