The ski season continues with Parnassos, Kalavrita, and Kaimaktsalan in full swing! Stay tuned to Snow Report for the latest updates, as a new drop in temperature with snowfall is expected this coming Thursday ? at least at higher altitudes.

The snow is icy in the morning but softens later. Waxing skis and snowboards is recommended for better glide.

The Falakro Ski Center will remain closed on Friday, March 14, 2025, due to insufficient snow.

FORECAST FOR TUESDAY 18/3/2025
Snowfall is expected in central and northern regions, mainly in mountainous areas. Winds will be blowing from the north-northwest at 5 to 6 Beaufort, and in the central and northern Aegean, from the northeast at 7 to 8 Beaufort. Temperatures will drop further across the country.

Two safety reminders:

Always have snow chains with you, a full fuel tank, or a fully charged battery if your vehicle is electric, appropriate equipment/clothing, and supplies like some food and water. Snow tires do not grip on smooth ice?when you notice this, stop and put on the chains.

Ski with controlled speed, and when descending the slope, avoid and give priority to those below you. If you want to stop, choose to do so at the edges of the slope, not in the middle.

With the closure of the Kaimaktsalan Ski Resort on April 14, 2024, due to the mild weather, the previous season officially came to an end. It was possibly the worst season of the past 30 years, marked by limited snowfall and unusually high temperatures. A striking fact is that in April, the beaches were as crowded as if it were June.

2019-2020 season was one of the best within the last 10 years. Up to the end of February we had almost every week new snow falls at altitudes above 1000 meters. March entered with higher temperatures and sunny weather.

At about 7 am Saturday 12/1/2019, an avalanche completely put down Styga chair-lift pillar 5. Fortunately, no injuries were caused. The avalanche was triggered by skilled personnel in order to provide safety for the skiers in the adjacent area. However, the end result was a much bigger avalanche than the one expected, causing major damage to the main chair lift, as you can see in the photo.

Skiing appeared for the first time in Greece in the 1920's and has had rising numbers of devoted fans ever since. Today, after almost a century, countless adventure seekers turn the snow covered mountain slopes across the country into hot places what with their passion and skill!

Although Greece is a country where the sun shines most of the year, it can also boast some very good skiing resorts with ultra modern facilities that can satisfy even the most demanding skiers, offering an unforgettable experience down spectacular ski runs where the beauty of the alpine landscape is guaranteed to take your breath away.
Enjoy a ski run in some of the best known skiing resorts of the country, and feast your eyes on the beauty of snow-clad mountaintops as you experience an overwhelming feeling of freedom.
