Things to Know from Heliski Georgia - 3 days
This programme is designed for skiers and riders looking for a complete, intense and carefully organised heliskiing experience in just three days. Based in Gudauri, Georgia's best-known ski resort, you will enjoy a high mountain environment in the heart of the Caucasus, access to powder snow and the expertise of a team of expert guides.
Your adventure begins with your arrival at Tbilisi International Airport. From there, a private transfer of about two hours will take you along the legendary Military Highway to the Marco Polo Hotel in Gudauri, where you will check in. Depending on your arrival time, you will attend a mandatory briefing on safety, risks and emergency procedures. If you arrive in the late afternoon or evening, the briefing will take place the following morning.
During the two days of heliskiing, after breakfast at the hotel, you will be transferred to the Heliksir hangar at around 09:00. There, equipment will be checked and groups will be formed. The first take-off is usually at 9:30 a.m., and all groups access the areas selected by the guides, depending on the group's level and safety conditions. A total of 9,000 metres of accumulated vertical drop is guaranteed, with up to 13,500 metres included. At midday, all groups meet at a scenic spot chosen for lunch in the mountains.
In the afternoons, you will return to the hotel between 3:00 p.m. and 4:30 p.m., and you can enjoy the spa area, swimming pool, relaxation, or dinner at local restaurants. At the end of the programme, you will have time to pack your bags before checking out at 12:00 noon and returning to Tbilisi.
This trip is ideal for those who want to experience heliskiing in a concentrated and uncomplicated way, in a spectacular setting with logistics taken care of down to the last detail.
