A wonderful, moderate ski tour deep into the wild Shar mountains. The north facing side of the Shar Mountains maintains good snow conditions throughout most winters. The slopes from Guri Prevalla to Prevalla village maintain almost year-round powder due to its aspect and prevailing wind direction. An enticing route for adventurous skiers looking to get into genuine mountain wilderness in a region rich in culture and history.
