About Gudauri

Gudauri is a mountain village and geographic location in northern Georgia, set along the Georgian Military Highway at about 2,200 metres above sea level. The village is surrounded by high mountain terrain and open alpine zones, making it well-suited for winter snowfall and summer greenery. Gudauri remains a small settlement, but it attracts visitors due to its natural setting, fresh air, and easy road access from Tbilisi.


While Gudauri refers to the actual village and location, Gudauri Resort is the name used for the full skiing and holiday infrastructure developed in the area. Georgia Tour packages frequently include this destination due to its ski lifts, cable cars, hotels, and activity zones built around the village. The resort area supports skiing, snowboarding, and paragliding, while the village retains its mountain character and peaceful surroundings.
