Bakuriani Ski Resort has remained one of Georgia’s most popular winter destinations for decades, and anyone who has experienced its exhilarating slopes and unearthly beauty can easily attest why. Families, carefree vacationers and Olympic skiers alike can appreciate the resort’s two dozen pistes for all difficulty levels, not to mention the paragliding, ice skating, snowmobiling, snowboarding and numerous entertainment options available to guests.
