Description

Helmos is a very interesting mountain to visit either by car or by the railway which climbs the famous

George of Vouraikos. The ski resort (1750m) that operates on the mountain for the last 8 years reaches 2341m. so the way to the top (2355) is relatively easy to be approached. On the other hand during winter months the whole arena of the region becomes quite demanding but also any experienced off-piste skier can enjoy the snowy slopes all around.

Don't forget that the big Gulf of Corinthiakos is only 1 hour away.
