Visitors were presented with dozens of ways to enjoy the snow at ski resorts in northern Greece on Sunday, by taking part in any of the many activities provided to celebrate the World Day of Snow, organized by the International Ski Federation (FIS) last Sunday January 22nd.
This year’s theme was “Bring Children to the Snow”, and it was the first year that World Snow Day was celebrated by ski resorts in Greece.
World Snow Day, which was introduced in 2007, saw local winter enthusiasts flocking to ski resorts to enjoy various happenings in the snow with background music, while ski clubs, instructors and athletes were on hand to provide advice.
Visitors made snow structures, including snowmen and igloos, while children also enjoyed supervised sledding and skiing and other games with the snow.
A recent cold front has blanketed Greece’s ski resorts with fresh snow.
