The Georgians have a saying … at the beginning of time when God was giving out land to the various nations of the world the Georgians were too busy drinking to attend.
Arriving late, God was angry and asked why they had dishonoured him so; there was now no land left to give them. But the Georgians replied that far from dishonouring God they were late simply because they were drinking to His health and this took quite some time. God was pleased by their answer and so gave them the tiny bit of land he had kept for himself. God is clearly a skier.
Georgia has some of the world’s most spectacular mountains and finest powder, and is undoubtedly one of Europe’s best-kept ski secrets. With nearly 500 square miles of mountains to explore, from the picturesque village of Gudauri – with its variety of accommodation, bars and restaurants – a number of ski options are available: adventure ski touring, heliskiing or regular lift-assisted skiing.
