Heli Ski Day in Abkhazia

Ah-Ag, Arabica, Ancho and Bzyb mountain ranges

Skating takes place in the "near zone". We have at our disposal stunning mountain ranges located to the west of Lake Ritsa (TV Tower, Ah-Ag, Arabica, Stone Treasure). This is a compactly located, but at the same time very diverse and rich mountain area!

What awaits you?

The helipad is located in Abkhazia, a 10-minute drive from the Russian border in the Abaata Hotel. The transfer from Krasnaya Polyana to the helipad takes approximately 1 hour. From the Olympic Park 30 minutes.
Complete safety and comfort will be provided by a team of professionals of the Association of Mountain Guides of Russia.
Height differences: 500m – 1000m in one descent
Ski area: landings up to 3000m, alpine and forest terrain
We will fly a modern mountain helicopter Eurocopter AS350 B3e.
• 2 hours of flight time;
• private transfer to the helipad;
• breakfast before riding;
• the work of two certified ski guides AGGR or UIAGM per group;
• lunch in the mountains, water on board;
• rent of avalanche equipment (ABS backpack, tranciever, probe, shovel).
The price includes:
• flight time in excess of 2 hours at the rate of 260.000rubles for 1 flight hour per helicopter, billing per minute;
• insurance;
• overnight at the hotel before skiing (from 4.000 RUR per room);
• if there is not a full group (less than 3 guests), skating is performed at the rate of 600,000rubles — the first 2 hours of riding per group, 240.000 RUR — the subsequent flight time per group.
Additionally:
We highly recommend you to stay at the Abaata Hotel the night before skiing! This will allow us to fly to the mountains earlier, which is important, because in the mountains of Abkhazia the weather may go bad by noon, due to the proximity of the Black Sea. The hotel is very comfortable, there is a park on the territory, a heated pool, a bathhouse, a beach and a restaurant with European and national cuisine.
The average vertical drop on the program for one descent is about 700m. We usually land at an altitude of 2200-2700, takes off at 1300-1800 meters.
Passing the border usually takes 30-40 minutes. Foreigners, depending on their citizenship, may need a dual or multi-visa of Russian Federation, as well as a visa to Abkhazia (issued upon entry). Please contact us in advance to prepare all the necessary documents.

Suspension from skating
By the decision of the guide, a participant may be suspended from skating if the level of his technical or physical fitness does not match the level of the other members of the group – the participant significantly "slows down" the group, creates a danger for himself or other members of the group. In this case, the organizing company does not make any compensation.
