Gudauri: reviews of the trails
In Gudauri low humidity, the snow is quite dry and more powdery than in Sochi. The slopes are mostly gentle, the trails are wide, which is more convenient for beginners. There are no trees here, so riding is more comfortable and safe. The landscape is conducive to freeriding: you can freely go off the trail and return to it.
Experienced athletes will appreciate the high level of preparation of the trails. The organizers solve the small amount of snow with the help of artificial snowmaking, and modern lifts are a separate pleasant moment.

February is the most crowded month GudauriThis is the time considered to be the most favorable for skating.
The beginning of December, the end of January, March is the period when you can save. There is a seasonal outflow of tourists, due to which you can get a pleasant price for accommodation and services.

Gudauri - the road to the resort
Ski resort Gudauri has fairly convenient transport accessibility. Most often, tourists get there by flying to Tbilisi.
It takes a little over 3 hours to fly from Moscow to the capital of Georgia. Then you can get from Tbilisi to Gudauri by bus or taxi. You will have to pay extra for large luggage on the bus. The journey from the capital to the resort will take about 2 hours.
To save money, you can go via Vladikavkaz or Beslan. From there, you can take a private carrier to Gudauri. It is quite difficult to predict the exact time it will take with this option, because you will be crossing the border.
And, speaking of time, be especially careful when leaving, especially if you are leaving on Sunday. There are quite a lot of tourists coming to relax for the weekend, so on Sundays there are decent traffic jams on the roads: leave early.

Feedback from our customers
Alina GevondyanI want to say thank you for the trip, I really enjoyed it! Due to bad weather and a little personal reasons, I felt very bad. And here I would like to especially highlight the guide Ilya, he helped me a lot. Unfortunately, there was no necessary pill in the first aid kit, but Ilya was able to find the necessary pill from passing tourists and this really saved me. We walked quietly, he gave me his stick and gave me water all the way. And a little later I felt better. Thank you so much Ilya for saving me and being with me! I also liked that a snack was included and that we quickly returned home despite the rain. ❤👍
