Rosa Khutor in the mountains above Sochi
1 to 3 days
December to March for skiing; June to September for walking
Rosa Khutor was built for the skiing events of the 2014 Sochi Olympics and lies in the Mzymta valley at Krasnaya Polyana. Its gondolas climb to peaks above 2,000 m, it has ski schools for beginners and children, and a small resort town on both banks of the river with hotels and restaurants.
In summer the gondolas keep running up to the alpine meadows for walks and views of the Caucasus. We arrange a guide and ski or walking equipment according to the season.
Good to know
- The Lastochka train runs there from Sochi and Adler
- The heights are much cooler than the coast; take warm layers even in summer
