More interested in on-piste ski lessons or learning off-piste technique? Then perhaps a half-day ski or snowboard lesson is more appropriate with one of our partner's English-speaking instructors. Make a ski/snowboard lesson inquiry ->
Daily Program & Meeting Point
A full day of exploring Gudauri's best terrain and snow conditions with one of our tour partner's (Vagabond Adventures) professional freeride guides. Whilst all types of terrain are available at Gudauri (except tree skiing!), your guide will customise the tour based on where the conditions are best and depending on the group's ability & wishes! The tour will utilise the resort's well-placed lift system to access the terrain, but short boot-packing ascents can be added if the group wants to explore a little further!
The day will follow a simple program - your group will meet your guide at the meeting point in New Gudauri at the giant map of the resort next to the gondola entrance before 10.30am or earlier if renting freeride skis or snowboards. (For any follow up tours or lessons, the guide and clients can agree on another meeting point as they see fit.)
Following a quick gear check, from 10.30am to 4.30pm, the guide & group will spend the morning and afternoon finding the best snow on the mountain and in between will have lunch together at a mountain restaurant. After skiing, with some knowledge passed on from the guide, you can experience the sights & nightlife of Gudauri ski resort.
Guides
With years of experience and an unquenchable thirst for adventure, the guides are your gateway to mastering Gudauri’s secret spots, heart-pounding chutes, and gravity-defying drops.

All are fluent in English but there are also multilingual options including Georgian, German, Czech & French.

Ski Ability, Age, & Customising Your Tour
This tour can be fully customised to meet any of your skiing (or snowboarding) needs and match your group’s ability, however a baseline ability to ski comfortable on intermediate slopes is required. Minimum age of any group member is 14yr. All participants should be confident and capable of skiing or riding on red runs and venturing off-piste to fully enjoy the challenges of freeriding.
If skiing off-piste freeride powder is not your strength, but you want to learn, the guide can slowly introduce you to it, providing advice & skills development whilst showing you the best ski areas the resort has to offer. All guides are qualified instructors that can easily spend some time on technical improvement if you wish. If you are more into ski-touring away from the ski lifts, the resort has an incredible range of areas to explore, and all are well-known to the guides! Just ask and the guides will try to deliver.
