Khatsvali Resort ( Region of Svaneti)
Khatsvali (Georg. კურორტი ჰაწვალი) – the first ski-resort in Svaneti, and it is a powder-mecca in disguise. The resort is northfacing, and it is located on a ridgeline just above Mestia. The tree skiing in Hatsvali is particularly good, and there are plenty of runs in the pine-forest, as well as open chutes and fields that provides excellent free skiing. In addition there are great back country opportunities from the top of the lift, where you can follow the ridgeline and find your own back country-zone. The resort has one chairlift that serves the three runs, and the vertical drop of the resort is 482 meters. At the top there is a restaurant where you can enjoy the view of Ushba, Tetnuldi and all the other magnificent mountains in Svaneti.
