Our Terrain:

Gito Yaylasi, Rize, Türkiye.

We are based In Gito Yaylasi in the Black Sea region of Türkiye. Gito is a high plateau (2000m) in the Kaçkar Mountain Range that receives an incredible amount of light powder snow from storms coming off of the Black Sea. On the drive in from the coast you will pass the famous Zilkale, The Black Sea regions most famous castle. With regular storms between December and April (snow history ) that produce between 50 and 150 cm of snow we have a stable and deep snowpack. March is usually our snowiest month, averaging 50cm of snow per week.

We have moderate and steep slopes with complex terrain that will impress any level of skier or snowboarder. We have great terrain both above and below treeline ensuring we can enjoy storm days as well. When the weather is clear we can climb above treeline to local peaks boasting incredible alpine bowls up high and beautiful glades of mixed evergreen and deciduous trees on their lower slopes. We can create machine accessed trips but to get the most out of our terrain we encourage you to bring touring equipment as some of our favorite lines are not accessible by snowcat/snowmobile.
