In the Accursed Mountains, a unique adventure awaits you. Cat Ski Kosovo combines culture with the immense hospitality of the local people. After a day full of adrenaline, you can enjoy traditional Kosovar dishes and the warmth of our cozy mountain hut. Cat skiing is a form of off-piste skiing where you are transported to remote mountain peaks by a snowcat. The pristine mountains of Kosovo provide the perfect location for this. You and local guides will decide which descent to take, offering ultimate freedom.
As always, we work predominantly with local partners and guides. As a foundation, we support tourism in developing countries. You get a local experience, and they benefit. Additionally, we help set up local initiatives in the (winter) tourism sector.
Pristina
After arriving at Pristina Airport, we head straight to the vibrant city of Peja. The charming city of Peja is your gateway to the Accursed Mountains. The bustling center is home to many coffee shops and local stores. After an extensive safety briefing, we prepare for a delicious local meal. The Kosovar cuisine is rich with fine herbs and delightful vegetables, often accompanied by a good piece of meat.
The real adventure begins the next morning when we drive to the quiet village of Decan (45 minutes). From here, your cat ski expedition in the Accursed Mountains unfolds. Get ready to ride in deep powder snow. The abundant snowfall transforms the rugged landscape into a paradise for freeriders. These majestic peaks, shrouded in legend, offer a perfect spot for those seeking the thrill of cat skiing and freeriding.
Decan
When the snow blankets the mountains, the mountains above Decan become an untouched playground for skiers and snowboarders. From the village of Decan, we drive another 15 minutes on a paved road before the off-road adventure begins. Depending on the snow line, we drive 20-40 minutes to the snowcat pick-up point. After loading the luggage, we drive the last stretch to the Gacaferi mountain hut. Amidst rugged mountain peaks lies our charming base for the coming week.
Cat / Pistenbully
At the moment, we have access to one Pistenbully 300 Polar and one backup Pistenbully 200. These beasts with 424 horsepower plow through the deep Kosovar snow with a blade. The comfortable cabins ensure that you can sit back and relax while the experienced driver takes you up the mountain. The ski equipment can be placed in the side compartments. Once the drop-off point is reached, the local guide will unload this equipment. Then you strap on your skis or snowboard and experience what cat skiing is all about. Once you reach the bottom, the snow cat will arrive to take you back up again.
Accommodation
You will stay at Gacaferi Guesthouse, a beautiful mountain lodge at 1800 meters. This guesthouse opened in 2022 and offers the perfect blend of modern and traditional. The 2-4 person rooms have comfortable beds and modern bathrooms.
The heart of Gacaferi Guesthouse is its delightful common areas. Here you can relax by the fireplace, share stories with fellow travelers, or enjoy a cup of freshly brewed coffee. The friendly host family is happy to share their knowledge of the area. They ensure that you lack nothing during the week.
One of the highlights of your stay will undoubtedly be the delicious homemade meals. The guesthouse serves authentic Kosovar dishes, made with fresh, local ingredients and bursting with flavor. From hearty breakfasts to mouthwatering dinners, every meal is a culinary delight.
