Abano Pass (Georgian: აბანოს უღელტეხილი) is a mountain pass located in Georgia. At 2,850 metres (9,350 ft), is the highest drivable mountain pass in the Caucasus.

[edit] Location

It is located in the Central Part of the Great Caucasus Mountains and connects two regions of Georgia: Kakheti on the south and Tusheti on the north.

[edit] Drivability

Due to high altitude and snowy winters the pass is closed from mid-October till the end of June. The damaged road surface allows only 4x4 cars to go through.
