Asia
Our first guided heliskiing adventures took us to Kyrgyzstan and Kamchatka. It was there, more than 25 years ago, that our journey began—and it is no surprise that Flory has developed a special connection with the East ever since.
Over the years, he has explored nearly every major mountain range in Russia, as well as many of the former Soviet republics, including Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Georgia, and Armenia, always on skis.
Our ski trips to Georgia, Armenia, and Central Asia are first and foremost about exceptional skiing in remote mountain regions where only a handful of people have the chance to leave their tracks in untouched powder snow. At the same time, these journeys offer a unique opportunity to experience different cultures and meet the remarkable people who call these mountains home.
Time and again, we are amazed by the warmth and generosity of the local hospitality. We have experienced moments that would be almost unimaginable in Central Europe. After skiing into a remote side valley that rarely, if ever, sees visiting skiers, we have been invited into family homes for tea and a traditional meal - experiences that stay with us for a lifetime.
And just when we think we have discovered every corner of this fascinating part of the world, we find something new. Whether by helicopter, ski lift, or touring skis, the mountains of the East continue to surprise us with endless adventure, untouched landscapes, and unforgettable skiing.
