Transition from winter to summer. Refuge Ch. Kakkalos summer season kicks off
The exit from the past heavy winter was rather slow. There was still fine skiing on the valley and north couloirs until mid-May, as snow has accumulated more in lower elevations. As we are ready to kick off the summer season there is still snow in several locations that requires extra caution and proper equipment. As summer as reached the lower elevations springy conditions still prevail on the upper mountain with low night temperatures.
We are happy to announce the opening of the 2022 summer season on Friday May 27. The season will last until the end of October.
Dear Mountain lovers. After another winter with not much mountaineering and skiing activity due to the imposed restrictions, we are pleased to announce the opening of refuge Christos Kakkalos for the 2021 summer season, on Friday May 27.
As the summer season marches on, the snow on the slopes melts and the weather gets more stable, we are happy to share with you another update on the conditions on Mount Olympus and on the functioning of Refuge Ch. Kakkalos...
