Terrain, ability and group
Skill Level: Strong Intermediate to Expert (must be comfortable in deep powder and technical terrain)
Terrain: Raw, off-the-radar lines
Your home base for the week is literally in the high-alpine slopes of the mountains. Everyday, we'll get a snowcat just to ourselves that will take you to various freeride zones circling Mount Gjeravica – the highest summit entirely within Kosovo, soaring to 2,656 meters. The technical layout there is exceptional: massive volcanic and glacial topography offers open, rolling bowls, continuous wide-open gullies, and steep, technical couloirs dropping past frozen glacial lakes. Expect average daily vertical descents exceeding 3,500 meters of completely untracked cold smoke.
No lift lines, no groomed runs – just you, the mountains, and untracked snow.
