Activity Description

Snowshoe ride in Kalavrita! Wonderful routes on the paths of the white Mount Helmos!

We meet our guide at the Kalavryta Ski Center at an altitude of 1,700 meters. After a short briefing and familiarization with our equipment, we have the opportunity to choose between two mountain routes:

     A. North side of Styx

Starting from the base of the ski resort, we head down towards the alpine zone of Xerokampos. During the route, we enjoy the amazing view of the Corinthian Gulf, the surrounding peaks of the northern Peloponnese, as well as the mountain ranges of mainland Greece to the North.

     B. Walk in the fir forest

From the base of the ski center, we follow the route of backcountry skiing or alpine skiing, through a beautiful fir forest. On the snowy paths, we enjoy the peace and tranquility of the mountain admiring the view towards the sea.

Whichever route we choose, it's a unique winter experience! After the Snowshoe Tour in Kalavrita, we also enjoy a traditional picnic and a hot drink.

Pick-up or drop-off from your accommodation is also available by arrangement, at an additional cost.
