There are also other options for the visitor here at the ski
centre besides basic ski. There are several options for the more
adventurous of us, including snowboarding, downwards descent,
and uneven slope and mountain artillery ski. The artillery ski
starts on the eastern road and finishes at the coastal village
of Agios Ioannis.

you can enjoy a snack or drink whilst taking a break for a short

in Greece. In fact, the area here where the ski centre is located
is also open in the summer for other activites such as mountain
biking, enduro and 4x4.
However, it is the winter time when Agriolefkes is most popular,
and this is testament to both the excellent facilities here on
offer, as well as the ideal location in which they are based.
