Snow Skiing
In Cyprus, snow-skiing can be enjoyed on the slopes of
Mount Olympos (1951 metres), from the beginning of
January to the end of March. Mount Olympos is only 3 km,
from Troodos hill resort, 12 km from Platres hill resort,
and about an hour’s drive from the seaside town of
Limassol
and the capital Lefkosia.
The Cyprus Ski Club possesses four Ski lifts.
a) Two of the lifts are installed on the North Face of Mount
Olympos. One is 350 metres long and the other is 500 metres
long.
b) The other two ski-lifts - each 150 metres long - are
installed at “Sun Valley” south of Olympos.
