Winter time in Pelion is just as popular as any time during
the summer months.
The reason is that the famous "Agriolefkes" ski
centre of Pelion is open and in full operation.
Visitors from all over Greece head to Pelion take enjoy the
fantastic first rate ski and winter sports facilities that
are on offer here.
The Agriolefkes ski centre
is just 12km from the village of Portaria, and 27km from Volos.
Portaria is an ideal village to visit and find accommodation whilst
you are in Pelion to hit the slopes.
The ski centre of Pelion was one of the first two in Greece, and
is one that offers stunning views and inspiring imagery.
The views from here are simply breath-taking, and you will never
find another ski centre quite like this one, in terms of the naturally
beautiful position in which it is located.
There are several ski slopes here that combine to make a total length
of 5000 meters. For those who are new to ski, there is a beginners
slope and also a ski school where you can take lessons.
As well as ski, there are several other winter sports that take
place here, such as snowboarding and mountain artillery ski.
For those planning to visit Pelion for the winter season, look no
further than "Arhontiko Kantartzi" for your accommodation.
We are ideally situated for those who plan to visit the ski centre,
and distance from here to Agriolefkes is very short.
The resort of Hania, which is where the ski centre is closely based,
is also popular during the summer months, where many head there
for mountain biking, 4x4 enduro, as well as for trekking and exploring
the lovely region.
We are open throughout the year here at Arhontiko Kantartzi, so
whenever you are planning to pay a visit to Pelion, you can be sure
that you will find us waiting to welcome you.
