The opening of the ski centers managed by the Public Real Estate Company SA (ETAD) is nearing completion. In particular, the official opening is expected within December, depending on the weather conditions, as emphasized in a relevant announcement.

These are the Vora-Kaimaktsalan Ski Center and the Parnassos Ski Center, next to the popular Arachova.

The Parnassos ski center is spread over two areas, Fterolaka and Kelaria, whose facilities have been consolidated and are joined by an aerial lift.

The Vora-Kaimaktsalan ski resort is located on the borders of the prefecture of Pella, which is the border with Skopje. Mount Voras or Kaimakatsalan is the third highest in Greece with an altitude of 2524 m.

ETAD’s main goal for this year is the timely and absolutely safe preparation and operation of the largest ski center in the country, so that it is ready to welcome athletes and snow lovers.
