HELI-SKIING ADVENTURES

Small-group and private heli-skiing in Turkey’s Kaçkar Mountains.

Explore a different side of Turkey: broad alpine bowls, rolling mountain faces and remote terrain above the Black Sea coast. Based in the mountain village of Ayder, these trips offer access to around 5,000 km² of alpine skiing terrain.

Choose a small-group programme or a private helicopter experience, with internationally certified guides and a family-run mountain hotel as your base. We’ll help shape the right trip around your group, dates and skiing experience.

WHAT MAKES TURKEY DIFFERENT

  • Expansive alpine terrain in the Kaçkar Mountains

  • Small groups of up to four guests with a guide

  • A choice of shared or dedicated helicopter programmes

  • A mountain-village base with a helipad close at hand

  • Three- or seven-day trips from January to March

Snow-covered mountain hotel and helipad in Ayder, Turkey

THE EXPERIENCE

The Kaçkar Mountains rise above Turkey’s Black Sea coast, where winter storms bring snow to a vast alpine landscape. Broad slopes and rolling mountain runs give the region its distinctive feel.

Your guides select the terrain around the group, weather and snow conditions. Small-group programmes share a helicopter; private trips give your group a dedicated helicopter and two guides.

YOUR BASE IN AYDER

Stay at a family-run mountain hotel in Ayder, with ensuite rooms, mountain and river views, and its own helipad. The village setting brings a warm, relaxed atmosphere to the end of each ski day.

Hotel facilities include a sauna, jacuzzi, gym and massage rooms. We’ll confirm your room arrangements and the details of your stay when planning your trip.
