Tetnuldi Ski Resort
თეთნულდი
A modern ski resort with the pyramid-shaped Tetnuldi peak as its backdrop, offering long runs and a long season. In summer, cable cars carry visitors up for views and hiking.
Tetnuldi Ski Resort lies about 20 km southeast of Mestia and opened in 2016. Its highest cable car station is at about 3,160 m, its longest run is nearly 10 km, and the season can extend into April, with snow conditions usually better than at Hatsvali. Behind it rises Tetnuldi, at 4,858 m, whose perfect snow slopes have earned it the nickname 'the pyramid of Svaneti.' From Mestia, a shuttle or taxi takes about 40 minutes. In summer some cable cars operate, letting you climb for views of the main Caucasus ridge.
