Catskiing and Heliskiing in Ayder

Located in the Rize province in Turkey, the little mountain village of Ayder is the perfect base to explore the Kaçkar mountain range. During the last few years, Ayder has made a name for itself among heliskiing fans: great snow conditions and more than 4500 square-kilometers of skiable terrain make it a must for skiers looking for off-the-beaten-path destinations. You’ll be mostly skiing on open terrain above the treeline but some great tree runs are also available. Choose one of our trips below and spend a few days skiing the amazing powder of the Kaçkar mountains. Explore-Share.com only promotes mountain trips led by certified guides.
