Winter in Gudauri & Bakuriani

While many ski-slopes around the world are starting to run thin on snow, the Caucasus Mountains continue to offer an extended natural snow skiing season. Slopes here are superb, with a vertical drop of about 1,000 meters and continuous runs of between six and fifteen kilometers. This year many slopes were still open until late May.

Georgia has two main skiing resorts, Gudauri in the Greater Caucasus and Bakuriani in the Lesser Caucasus - both now fast developing with many recently built lifts, hotels and chalets. The cross-country, snowboarding, and ski-treks are excellent, and well backed up by full rental facilities and international standard emergency services.
