Bakuriani Fairytale

Bakuriani is situated 29 km from Borjomi at 1700-2000 m above the sea level in the sub-tropical zone. The snow blanket remains for 4-5 months but in the summer the aroma of the coniferous trees and other climatic factors create ideal conditions for rest and recreation. It is a paradise for ski lovers and an internationally important winter sports center, which meets Olympic standards. Many international athletes come here to practice their skills. It is also a superb venue for children to take their first steps in winter sports; ideal for families and popular among the young generations. Rope ways, ski-jumps, ski-tracks, cross-country skiing, horse-rides, horse-drawn sledges and snowmobile ;all can be found in Bakuriani. The surrounding mountains offer numerous possibilities for both challenging and scenic mountain mobile trips as for example up and down Kohkta Gora (2,150 m. above the sea level) or the road from Bakuriani to Tabatskuri Lake via Tskhra-Tskaro Pass (2,454 m. long distance).
