Winter Sports in Pelion and Pelion Ski Center
Pelion is not just a summer destination, but also an ideal place for winter sports, thanks to the unique combination of mountain and sea. The mountain of the Centaurs, with its rich forests and picturesque villages, turns into a magical winter retreat when snow blankets the landscape. The Pelion Ski Center, located at the summit of Agriolefkes, is the main hub for those seeking winter activities in the area.
The ski center offers slopes for all levels, from beginners to advanced skiers and snowboarders. The panoramic views of the Pagasetic Gulf and the Aegean Sea provide a unique experience as you glide down the mountain. The center features alpine ski slopes, snowboarding areas, and dedicated beginner zones for those who wish to learn or improve their skills.
Additionally, Pelion is perfect for alternative winter activities such as snow trekking and snowshoeing. The forest trails and paths offer excellent routes through nature, providing serenity and views of snow-covered landscapes and traditional villages like Portaria and Makrinitsa.
