Had an amazing trip. Guides know the area extremely well and are professional when it comes to safety, route planning, touring. Although there was much ability-diversity in the group, the guides manage to keep everyone happy and challenged. Would recommend this trip to anyone who is looking for fresh powder, interesting terrain, stunning mountains and the most welcoming hospitality of Europe.

Nika at Georgian Freeride Tours goes above and beyond to deliver an exception tour in an incredible region. With his network of local guides and intricate local knowledge, he made sure we were in the right place everyday to score the best fresh lines. His excellent daily briefings kept the energy levels high and made group well informed on the conditions, approaches etc - not to be missed...
Powderhounds Ambassador, 10/02/2024
I had planned to visit Mestia & the Svaneti in Georgia a few times over the Powderhounds’ journey, and finally managed it with zero planning after looking at a snow forecast for the region. I sorted flights and Nika from Freeride Tours Georgia sorted everything else within an hour of letting him know I was coming. Such a fantastic way to start any trip, and particularly somewhere a little more difficult to get to
Benjamin, 31/07/2024
We had an amazing week of deep powder and great guiding. We rode a large variety of terrain. Went up the mountain with a Heli, did some cool descents with the splitboard, and rode the best powder lines we ever experienced. The guides really know what they are doing. Apart from snowboarding we also had delicious Georgian food for breakfast and dinner included in our booking. All in all can highly recommend
Emanuele Lunardi, 30/07/2024
Very authentic experience trough Georgians mountains. Guides are really good always with smile and available to support you and your team. Heli drop was fantastic! They know very well the terrain and where to find the best conditions for the snow. Very cool experience also out of the mountains, where we lived with the locals, ate delicious food and enjoyed the village. 5 stars! I will come back for sure!
New Heliski frontier in Georgia! The 1st Heli Week in Racha run by Locals
Absolute sensation - new heliski destination!
A NEW HELISKI FRONTIER IN GEORGIA! The first heliski week in Racha run by a Georgian operator — created by locals, based in the Caucasus.Georgia’s quietest mountain province — vineyards below, the Greater Caucasus above
OVERVIEW
Under three hours north of Kutaisi, the road leaves the vineyards of the Rioni valley and climbs into a landscape of wooden villages, mineral springs and empty ridgelines. Racha has been famous in Georgia for centuries — for its wine, its air and its silence — and completely unknown to skiers. It is a region people are protective of: no resorts, no crowds, no development on the high slopes. Which is precisely why the skiing here has waited until now

ACCOMODATION
HOTEL AND HELIPAD, SIDE BY SIDE. The helicopter station is a two-minute walk from the hotel door. Breakfast, boots, briefing, take-off — no morning transfer, no road, no waiting. The most valuable hour of a heliski day is the one you don’t spend in a minibus. And you are not cut off. The base sits in Oni, the capital of Racha: hospital and pharmacy, shops and cafés, fuel, bank and mobile coverage — all within a few minutes of the hotel. Wilderness skiing, with a town behind it
