Και πέρα απ' αυτό αφού τώρα υπάρχουν τα ορειβατικά σκί και τα σνόουμπορντ που μπορείς να φορά κανείςτά πέδιλα ή την σανίδα αντίστοιχα και να ανεβαίνει ώς εκεί που θέλει για μετά να κατέβει πιός ο λόγος να υπάρχουν τα λίφτ και κωλοχιονοδρομικά κανένας

It was filmed at beginning of July 2018. Basically the summer slopes were the ones along the t-bars, the others were little flat and I used them to get to the t-bars from the top station and then to return to the bottom station. It was 6 years ago so it’s best to check updated map of the slopes, there is new gondola from the Italian side and the slopes could have been rearranged as the glacier melts.

​@@skibum_plthank you!

Yes :)

Doesn't look to steep? I'm not super experienced but i can do this for sure, but my gf is not as advanced as me @@skibum_pl

Thanks. Any experience going up there from Cervinia? I think it's easier to reach when going by plane. Zermatt is a 3 hour drive from the airport.@@skibum_pl

@@RobertoVillaLobby unfortunately I only stayed in Zermatt

Yes.

Are you really comparing Tatra mountains to Alps? 🙈

@@skibum_pl not really yk just saying

Top part (along t-bars) is fine, then it becomes pretty flat. Snowboarders would likely need to walk.

'Tis a pretty mountainous country

Unfortunately I don’t know

We stayed in Cervinia right when the mountain opened for ski season last year. In the days before the Italian side opened, people would take their skis up from Cervinia to Plateau Rosa, then ski down from there to Trockner Steg on the Zermatt/Swiss side. Then you take the 03 gondola from Trockner Steg up to the top of the glacier. Then ski down to Plateau Rosa to get back to the Italian side. That is essentially the glacier area for summer skiing. So, while this is eminently doable, the issue is that sometimes they shut down the gondola from Trockner Steg due to high winds. If that happens, you’re stuck on the Swiss side and cannot get back to Cervinia. Heard stories of the $600-800 (4 hr) cab rides back to Italy. Don’t know if they are entirely true, but the drive is that long, as there is no direct way - gotta drive around the mountain. We spent a day doing it and it was a blast. Great outdoor bar at Trockner Steg with perfect views of the Matterhorn. Order an Aperol Spritz and lay out in the sun and snow. Note: Run 7 on the Italian side wasn’t even open on opening day, but we did get to go down 6 to Plan Maison.

@@bmac7453 many thanks! Yes I also learned from locals, thar Cervinia is not an option for summer skiing, but it is planned to open a new lift next year, than it will be a good option 😀

Yes, it’s the longest one

Yes, I did it myself.

The resort is super small to Host the Olympics

That would cost Greece a lot as they would have to construct ski jumping ramps etc

From May till July you have several other Alpine resorts to choose from, with good snowing conditions guaranteed. Hintertux and Molltaler Gletscher in Austria or Passo Stelvio in Italy, for example.

I hate to spoil your optimism, but it's not exactly certain that it's always going to look like this in July. For example, in 2022, it snowed very little during winter, and it was a hot year above average in the region... so by the time July arrived, the snow had pretty much melted away leaving the glacier bare black exposed.

Now I know! 🙈

No, not in summer.

In winter glacier resorts can be extremely cold and there are many, many others open. Summer skiing is so great, as you can also enjoy mountain bikes or hiking. :)

@@skibum_pl kayaking this summer but we’ll see how COVID treats us this winter. Take care!

Yes, on snowy days they are mandatory.

It's not very popular in Europe either. :) Same like that one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3O8gWOHbZeFiLc

GREECE !!! it's not only for summer... mykonos... santorini... rhodes...and the others islands!!! We have mountains... 20 ski centers...for mountain bike...rivers for canyoning...GREECE IS FOR FOUR SEASSONS HOLIDAYS ! IT IT LIKE PARADISE !!!... MY FRIENDS !!!

Well, it's included in the "summer skiing area" but indeed it's usually first to close.

Depends on the weather, but end of July is usually OK.

@@skibum_pl thanks. The map shows 2 blue slopes from the top. Are they usually open?

@@Kti432 it is basically one slope, just little steeper on one side. :)

@@skibum_pl and would you say its blue enough for most beginners?

@@Kti432 Basically yes. In morning, even in summer, it can be very hard and icy in the morning, but it becomes softer before noon.

Yup. Summer skiing is the best. 🙂

@@skibum_pl I went to hintertux twice. Passo Stelvio may be an option this summer, but don't you find those drag lifts very slow and boring?

@@Kti432 nah, I don't complain in summer ;)
