Kalavryta Back Country Skiing, Achaea
Activity Description
Ski around the mythical waters of Styx
We pick you up from your accommodation in the village of Kalavryta. After you are properly equipped, we head to the Kalavryta Ski Resort at an altitude of 1,700 meters, where we prepare for our activity. Here you will have the option to choose between two hiking routes, depending on the weather conditions and the experience of the participants.
From the base of the ski lift, we head west, towards the treacherous slopes of Helmos. We will arrive at the mountain refuge and enjoy the view of the mountain peaks of the Peloponnese and Central Greece, eating our picnic. Then we will enjoy couloir and alpine skiing, facing the view of the Gulf of Corinth.
At the end of any of the two routes, we will enjoy a traditional treat and hot drink.
