Troodos Mountains in Cyprus | Mount Olympus | Snow in January 2020 | Ambient Zone TV

January 2020 - this is a trip to the Troodos Mountains in Cyprus - in search of snow - Mount Olympus at 1.950m
Olympus, or Chionistra, (Greek: Όλυμπος or Greek: Χιονίστρα) at 1,952 metres (6,404 ft), is the highest point in Cyprus. It is located in the Troodos Mountains of Cyprus. Mount Olympus peak and the "Troodos Square" fall under the territory of Platres in Limassol District. A British long range radar currently operates at Mount Olympus' peak.
Storyline: “Oh yes! In Cyprus you can enjoy the sun during Summer but also go skying in the mountains during Winter or just have a nice walk in this magical wintery landscape! For this occasion we brought the action camera and the mobile phone to show you what it’s like to travel up there and see the environment “
Roads were very clean, last km’s were getting icy though, we installed snow chains. You can see this back in a few fragments in this film. Sorry but safety first!
Lesson: do not use snow chains if you want smooth video footage. But you might be taking a lot of risk. 4WD is not always sufficient.
Lesson: do use snow chains - especially the final km’s up the hill - if you want to prevent your car from sliding backwards to the cars behind you or mess something up in front of you.
