"Goderdzi is a young ski resort in high-mountain Adjara (opened in 2015), located 106-115 km from Batumi at an altitude of over 2000 m. It is famous for the most abundant snow, a long season (December–April) and excellent freeride. The resort offers about 8-18 km of slopes (green, blue, red), a modern cable car system (gondola and chairlift), as well as cozy cottages, while remaining a quiet place without queues.
We went with a group of friends to this wonderful place for 2 days and rented a little house - Guest House Nukri, not far from the ski resort itself (5-10 minutes' drive). A wonderful time, you plunge headfirst into winter and discover something new."

"Had a wonderful trip to Goderdzi! We were lucky with the weather—the snow only started falling after 15:00, so we got to enjoy clear skies, beautiful mountain views, and incredibly fresh, clean air. Everything felt peaceful and serene. Just a simple, really good day in the mountains. Highly recommend it!"

At the same time, we want to give special recognition to Ucha Zoidze, who really stood out. He is extremely thoughtful, understands guests perfectly, and provides service with great tact and professionalism.
Thanks to him and the whole team, the atmosphere was warm, relaxed, and genuinely enjoyable. We truly appreciated the experience."

"If you’re looking for an amazing winter getaway in Georgia, Goderdzi is a must-visit! We traveled here to experience the snow and try some exciting winter activities like skiing, riding the cable car, and enjoying the thrill of a snowmobile ride. It was truly an unforgettable experience!
The scenery here is breathtaking—everywhere you look, you’re surrounded by stunning snow-covered mountains and peaceful nature. The air is fresh, and the atmosphere is very relaxing. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced skier, this place offers something for everyone. The ski slopes are well-maintained, and there are options for renting equipment if you don’t have your own.
One of the highlights of our visit was the cable car ride. As you go up, you get to see panoramic views of the entire area covered in snow—it’s absolutely beautiful! We also tried snowmobiling, which was an adrenaline-filled adventure. Riding through the snowy terrain was so much fun and gave us a new perspective of the place.
Another thing we loved was how peaceful it was compared to other crowded ski resorts. It’s a great destination whether you’re traveling solo, with friends, or even with family. The locals are also friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better.
Overall, Goderdzi is a perfect winter destination for those who love snow and adventure. If you’re planning a trip to Georgia in the winter season, don’t miss out on this hidden gem! Highly recommended!"

"One of the best ski resorts I’ve visited in Georgia! The nature is absolutely beautiful, and the ski slopes are amazing. It’s also very affordable. The resort isn’t very famous, so there aren’t many people on the slopes, which makes the experience even better. The only downside is that the road to the resort is a bit rough, so having an SUV is recommended—but it’s definitely worth the trip. There aren’t many restaurants or activities besides skiing and snow sports, but if that’s what you’re looking for, it’s a fantastic destination!"

"It takes quite a long time to get there from Batumi, about 2 hours to Khulo, plus then a bad stretch of road begins all the way to Goderdzi itself (but maybe someday they'll finish it). The ski resort itself is very small in scale (you can feel the remoteness) - little infrastructure, a few cafés and the area around the lifts and the Ambassadori hotel. There are fewer people compared to other ski resorts, but prices are also lower (35 lari for a full-day ski pass). There are very few slopes (a few blue ones and one red, I think), one lift to a blue slope, the second to a blue and a red one; it feels better suited for freeride. The slopes themselves seemed too uneven - snowboarders may find it uncomfortable in places (on skis it's fine). Overall I liked it more than not - inexpensive, not many people, decent slopes, there's rental and cafés, but after a few days it would probably get a bit boring."

"We never made it to Goderdzi 24.01.25
The road through mountainous Adjara is beautiful and very picturesque ❤️
After the town of Khulo the paved section ends. Huge potholes, real craters, you 100% won't get through in a low-clearance car.
From Khulo we drove 10 km and went back to Batumi.
Huge landslides all along the road, which effectively doesn't exist. We decided not to risk it and turn back.
When you're driving 10 km per hour because of the potholes and earth and rock are falling under your wheels, it's kind of scary to drive!"

"For Georgian standards nice and modern ski Ressort. Ski lift and ski rental are reasonably priced, anything else though comes with a stiff premium that borders on the excessive even for Swiss standards (snowmobile hire 200 $ -not Lari- an hour). Be advised to bring ample cash as when we were there half the shops had no working card readers, and the only ATM in the Ambassadori Hotel was broken, with the next being in Khulo, over an hour via a road that hardly deserves the name.
So come prepared."

The site itself is amazing, crazy amounts of snow,
Definitely worth visiting,
We drove about 3 hours from the city of Batumi, with a private driver,
For the site itself it's recommended to come with a 4*4 vehicle, since the climb to the site has lots of ice, potholes, you can get there but 4*4 is better"

"We drove through on 21.08.24 from Akhaltsikhe to Batumi.
From the Akhaltsikhe side the road is all fine, there are only two short sections of about 500 meters each near Zarzma without asphalt and with active road construction.
After the pass towards Batumi a descent of ~5 kilometers of pleasant smooth dirt road begins, construction of the ascent is underway there.
After these ~5 kilometers another, less pleasant 15 begin, all the way to the village of Dioknisi. I mean a road that has never seen asphalt, used by heavy trucks, with works underway, streams flowing and dust everywhere. You can get through in a passenger car (just not in the rain), we didn't even scrape the bottom, but it will be very difficult."

"We drove over the pass on 3.08.2024, I want to note that the road from the Akhaltsikhe side is almost finished, at the beginning there is a section of no more than 1 km with dirt, but I think they'll finish that soon too, after the monument the descent is also much better compared to past experience, somewhere around 5-7 kilometers of comfortable dirt road and then new asphalt to Khulo. Of course, all this has brought a flow of traffic."

"An excellent ski resort. But when planning a trip there, keep in mind that there are only two slopes to ride. One is supposedly blue, but for a snowboarder it will seem like a flat plain you'll have to walk along. And the second is supposedly red, but in fact it's blue and a not very experienced rider can confidently ride it. The resort is suited for freeride, or rather riding near the slopes. While we were there, there was enough snow to ride off-piste with pleasure and without strain, but there was a feeling that it lacked slopes for a more dynamic descent and stronger emotions."

"I rode for one day, in a friend's car, it turned out budget-friendly but exhausting. The road is difficult and long (3.5 hours one way), but interesting. There's a risk of damaging the car and stretching your nerves. The resort has 3 slopes, 2 lifts. The views are impressive. It makes sense to go, but preferably by transfer, I heard it's 60 lari one way per person. You can find it in the Goderzi Telegram chat. If in your own car, then only a crossover / jeep with all-wheel drive, otherwise there's a chance of getting into some fun. There were almost no people"

"Much more attention is needed to infrastructure, children's entertainment spaces, as many as possible. Infrastructure, garbage dumps zero. And everyone should have access to cafés, restaurants and the opportunity to attend concerts. What this means is that only a few attend entertainment events. Zaza Kochalidze's café is famous all over Goderdzi. The café-restaurant and ski equipment are very low-budget, and we vacationers here like it very much, thanks to Zaza Kochalidze. And his brother Mamuka. Natives of Riketi. His family, Mrs. Mzia and her three brave sons, who tirelessly serve the vacationers."

Low prices for ski pass and rental
Good slopes for beginners and intermediate riders
Few people on the slopes
Cons that cancel out all the pros:
25 kilometers of off-road to the resort on the only road
High hotel prices near the lifts
Lifts stop running at 16:00
Complete lack of entertainment
Rental of heavily worn equipment
No off-piste riding"

We drove from the Borjomi side to Batumi, deliberately choosing this picturesque road, which according to locals has been under repair for the second year already. Truly beautiful waterfalls, canyons, mountains, slopes. The road is being repaired, dangerous passes are being reinforced, and accordingly sections are partially closed for short periods of 20-30 min., on some stretches there are deep ruts, mud, dirt road."

"Goderdzi is a four-season mountain resort, located in Upper Adjara, 2025 meters above sea level, 2 hours drive from Batumi, but in winter due to the weather condition it might take much more time.
I've never been there during winter but as I know compared with other ski resorts, it's not as developed as others in Georgia. That's one of the reasons why it's not crowded, it might be a plus for some people.
For skiing and snowboarding there are 8.5 km of slopes available, but it can offer freeride opportunities as well.
In summer, it's amazing and full of local Adjarian people who spent there whole summer."

Pros
The resort is fairly new. Modern lifts.
The mountains are mostly gentle. Just right for beginners. Freeriders will like it too.
Few people.

No ATM. The nearest is in Khulo. Stock up on cash. We couldn't even pay for the hotel by card.

"A picturesque ski resort 100 km from Batumi with all amenities, an excellent restaurant, a nightclub with live music and a five-star hotel 50 meters from the lift.
Of the minuses: 1) The broken road of Mountainous Adjara, on which you'll drive a mere 100 km from Batumi to Goderdzi for five or six hours, and even then only in an equipped all-wheel-drive off-roader. 2) The resort staff speak foreign languages poorly, finding a Russian-speaking instructor is almost impossible. 3) Reckless Georgian skiers with minimal skills race at full speed, there's a chance someone will knock you down. Every day an ambulance takes someone off the slope with broken legs.
Despite all the listed minuses, it's recommended for a visit."
