Then you will find yourself on 7 km of blue and red trails, between a coniferous forest and a view of the surrounding mountains. Also 15 km from the Chalet there is the Tutnldi Resort, with 30 km of trails. Infrastructure is continuing to improve EU is scaling its investment commitments.
Our team will select skis for you from our assortment.

One of the best freeride regions in the world
A German team of freeriders has been working in Mestia for 10 years, opening the magnificent hillsides of Svaneti for Europeans
Most athletes repeatedly return here, because the advantages of local descents have not yet had time to gain worldwide fame. Only here you will truly feel like a pioneer, rushing on skis on fresh powder
Flights are conducted on a Eurocopter 350 helicopter, with groups of four + a guide. Daily tours start 500 meters from our chalet. However, the program requires a booking at least half a year in advance
