Overview
The shortest winter trip we sell: a day at Hatsvali, where short lifts and forest runs let the guide read your level, then a day on Tetnuldi — long open runs to 3,160 m with Ushba standing across the valley. It is built for skiers who are already in Georgia, or close, and can give Svaneti exactly one weekend. The order is the point: you warm up before the mountain that deserves fresh legs.
The package carries what a weekend cannot afford to lose time on: a local Svan guide both days, lift passes, the group transfer from Kutaisi airport and back, travel inside the region in our own vehicles, and a room in Mestia with breakfast, lunch and dinner. A group is six people — one guide, one car — and that arithmetic is the per-person price.
Classic or Signature
Classic
€535
Family guesthouse, simple room, full board.
Signature
€1,045
Signature reshapes the weekend rather than padding it. You stay in premium guesthouses, and the second day becomes heliskiing — one drop on an untouched face, then a guided descent — in place of the Tetnuldi lift day. Hatsvali stays as day one, because finding your legs matters more, not less, once a helicopter is involved.
