The Elatochori Ski Center is located on the northeastern side of the Pieria Mountains, at “Papa Chorafi”, at an altitude of 1450m. It enjoys a privileged location with spectacular views of Olympus and Aliakmonas. It is only 8 km from the picturesque village of Elatochori, 36 km from Katerini, 474 km from Athens, 105 km from Thessaloniki and 120 km from Larissa.
Although it is a relatively new ski resort, it has become popular with winter sports enthusiasts, who also flood its slopes. A fact that is due both to the center’s excellent infrastructure and to the wonderful nature that surrounds it. The facilities of the Ski Center include 10 slopes with a varying altitude difference and with varying degrees of difficulty to satisfy both experienced and discerning skiers as well as beginners who try their skills in the most popular winter sports. There is also a snowboard and a sled track. The total length of the slopes and the network of snow-paths connecting them exceeds 12,000 m.
At the base of the Ski Center there is a new two-storey chalet, distinguished for its modern aesthetics, which is in harmony with the environment. There are also shops selling and renting equipment and skiing equipment and a ski school. It is worth mentioning that a fully equipped first-aid clinic operates in the ski center with a permanent doctor on a daily basis.
