A leap through time – that’s how it feels when you’ve just walked along the sunny beach and now you’re up to your knees in snow. At first glance, the land of the ancient gods has little to do with winter sports. At least, that’s what everyone thinks who has not yet been to the mountains of Greece, which are over 2,000 metres high. In fact, however, there are over 197 kilometres of pistes and 122 ski lifts in Greece’s ski areas. SnowTrex<\/a> has 5 good reasons for why skiing in Greece is definitely worthwhile:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Skiing with a view of the sea<\/h2>\n

Ski holidays in Greece are the perfect opportunity to experience something completely new and to swap your usual skiing in the Alps for an exotic experience. The impressive view of the sea from some of the slopes creates an almost surreal contrast between the mountains and the sea. This breathtaking experience can be enjoyed, for example, at the Kalavryta ski area and at the Pelion Ski Center. The Kalavryta ski area (2,340 m) is one of the highest ski areas in Greece and has 12 km of pistes.<\/p>\n
