Are you looking for a new and challenging powder destination? Look no further! Georgia’s mountains offer some of the best skiing in the world – and we take you to Goderdzi Pas in Georgia. The best: The Ski Resort has opened only in December 2015 and offers brand new lifts to reach our breath taking freeride terrain. There are many places where only view people have skied before.

The Goderzi Pass is located in the very heart of the Caucasus Mountains. Surrounded by some of Europe’s highest peaks it has some of the finest high-altitude powder in Europe and offers downhill skiing up to the 4 200 meter level. The deep snow and the absence of stones and any avalanche risk make Goderzi Pass an ideal place for freeriding.

How do we get there: From the Black Sea coast town Batumi an exciting roadtrip will take us in about 3-4 hours thruogh beautiful landscape to a town called Danisparauli. Because of heavy snowfalls, in the winter time the road ends here and we have to change vehicle: A Snowcat will take us to the Goderdzi Pass at about 2100 meters. During the next 6 days we will enjoy incredible skiing all around Goderdzi Pass.
