Snow doesn’t get much more reliable than it does here. The Caucasus catches some of the heaviest annual snowfall of any range in Europe or Asia, and Goderdzi sits in one of its deepest pockets—a corner of Georgia most skiers have never even considered, let alone visited. We’ve chased powder across enough ranges to know how rare terrain this untouched actually is. Five full days in a private snowcat take you through open bowls, dense forest lines, and alpine slopes, shaped daily around the snow and how the group’s skiing. And when the boots come off, there’s a proper wine tasting rooted in one of the oldest winemaking traditions on Earth, a hands-on khinkali class, and a luxury spa hotel to sink into every night.
Seven days built around five full days of private cat skiing in Goderdzi, one of the Caucasus' snowiest regions. We meet you at Tbilisi, Batumi, or Kutaisi Airport and drive up to a luxury mountain spa hotel, your base for the week. From there, your guides shape each ski day around the current snow and how the group's skiing—wide-open powder fields, untouched forests, and alpine terrain, accessed almost entirely by snowcat. Somewhere in the middle of the week, there's a break from the cold for a khinkali-making class and a wine tasting rooted in Georgia's ancient winemaking tradition. Evenings are spent back at the hotel, with a pool and spa to work the legs loose.

This Georgia cat skiing trip is built for confident, capable skiers.
You should be comfortable skiing red pistes, able to link turns in deep powder, ski tight trees and open alpine terrain, and stay active for 5 to 6 hours a day. Your guides adapt the day’s terrain based on snow conditions and how the group is skiing, but this isn’t a beginner-friendly trip.

There’s more happening off the snow than you’d expect. Partway through the week, there’s a hands-on khinkali-making class, where local hosts teach you to fold and cook Georgia’s most iconic dumpling yourself, not just eat it. It’s paired with a wine tasting that traces the country’s roughly 8,000-year-old winemaking tradition, one of the oldest in the world
Your guides are with you the whole trip too, happy to talk mountains, snow, and Georgian culture in between ski days.
