The Bzyb Range's length is about 50 km and elevation is up to 3,033 m, it is made mainly of limestone with pronounced karst landscape. It is bounded by the valley of the Bzyb River from the north and west and partially by the valley of Kelasuri River, which separates it from the Abkhaz Range.

One of the attractions is the Snowy Cave (ru:Пещера Снежная), the most speleologically complex in the whole former Soviet Union.
