Skiing in the Caucasus Mountains is amazing!

Sochi, Russia | Skiing in the Caucasus Mountains is amazing! ✨In addition to Xinjiang, many people choose to ski in France, Austria, Switzerland, Canada, and Hokkaido. In fact, Russia also has abundant skiing resources and conditions. Top ski resorts in Russia: 🌟Sochi Krasnaya Polyana (4 ski resorts, the most famous being Rosa Khutor) 🌟Mount Elbrus (the highest peak in Europe at 5,642 m) Kamchatka (volcano lake helicopter skiing) 🌟Novosibirsk (I haven't been here, but the snowfall in Siberia is definitely amazing) Rosa Khutor NO1. The largest ski resort in Sochi, with new and complete cable car facilities. It is located in the Caucasus Mountains, close to Georgia and the Black Sea. It was the venue for the alpine downhill and slalom events at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics. NO2. The longest ski run is 20 km. It is recommended for those who can at least ski smoothly on the edge and switch edges on advanced runs. The slope of the runs is not steep overall, but the ski resort is so large that it took me 2–3 days to get familiar with the runs. My legs were sore after one run. There are many uneven runs and mogul runs. The snowfall is comparable to that of Hokkaido and Hemu in Xinjiang. NO3. It takes 40–60 minutes to reach the top of the mountain by taking three cable cars, including queuing time. The ski resort has a very strong sense of vertical drop. NO4. Ski pass price: RUB 5,500/day without ski equipment. Renting ski equipment costs an additional RUB 2,000. Discounts are available for ski passes of 3 days or more.
