Family winter playground
With the convenience and amenities of a large, well-appointed hotel and increasingly modernized commercial ski resort, Gudauri is an ideal destination to accommodate families or mixed groups of heliskiers and non-heliskiers. As an added bonus, the helicopter takes off virtually from the hotel’s doorstep.
Low cost introduction and ease of access
Relatively affordable heliskiing, great as an introduction to heliskiing with a good selection of wide-open slopes with the option for a 3-day long weekend and inexpensive direct flights to Tbilisi from many major European cities
