Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Well guys and gallz, am not good at writing reports but this place.... i just had to share Very Happy

So my report is gonna involve lottsa photos and very small amount of text Smile

So a friend of myne told me about the magical place with lottsa snow , sun and absolutely no lines at the ski lifts... so me and my gf decided to check it out. The place is called Gudauri it's in Georgia (between Russia and Turkey , there was war here in 2008 with russia invading the place).

Gudauri is 3000m above sea level, has 5x groomed tracks starting from begginer level to advanced with 5x chairlifts made by the austrians (Doppelmayre).

The Place is this big

Powdah!

How did you get there? Getting there is not much of a problem since i live in Ukraine. We don't need a visa to get there , just grab a plain ticket and all the stuff you need and off you go. The ski place is like 2x hours of driving from the airport.

Where did you stay? A hotel 5 min walk away from the chairlifts.

How much does everything cost? The whole trip per person was somewhat 850$ should be like 1000$-1100$ anywhere from Europe. Price should change due to the location of where you flying from, closer to the place the cheaper Smile i'll post photos of the hotel and some usefull links. My hotel was like 20 euros per day which included breakfast and supper (awesome food).

Any English spoken? 70% of Georgians speak English.

Is it safe? Friendliest police, not corrupt willing to help... I haven't seen this kinda hospitality ...

The resort looks tiny but the scenery looks fairly gentle so there must be endless possibilities for touring. Can't find the price of the lift pass though.

altis, It's known mainly for Heliskiing here in Germany. A friend of mine spent a couple of weeks there once and was absolutely over the moon about the place. Havn't heard much about it since the war, but I guess it's OK again now.
