Snow, Skiis and Spas: Your Guide to Winter Sports in Turkey
|
|
If you're looking for the perfect place for an
international winter vacation, look no further than Turkey. With its
winter season running from early December to April you'll have
plenty of time to visit the country's hottest ski resorts and then
relax in one of Turkey's many natural mineral baths and hot springs.
Skiing on majestic snow-covered mountains is probably the most
popular winter sport in Turkey. While there are many ski resorts to
choose from in Turkey, Mount Uludag, near Bursa, is arguably the one
of the finest. Declared a National Protected Area in 1961, Mount
Uludag offers beautiful scenery along with plenty of your favorite
winter sports. Skiing, snowboarding, heli-skiing, ice skating and
snow biking are sure to delight any visiting winter sport
enthusiast. After a long day on the slopes, head back to Bursa for a
soothing dip in one of their many therapeutic hot springs.

Palandoken Mountain is another great place to spend your ski
vacation. Located only five kilometers from Erzurum, the ski resort
at
Palandoken Mountain can be reached in ten minutes by car. Skiers
can rent equipment, schedule time with an instructor, or even try
their hand at heli-skiing.
To really get away from it all, head to Kartalkaya, a ski resort in
the Koroglu Mountains. Kartalkaya, just fifty kilometers from Bolu,
is surrounded by beautiful pine forests for a communing-with-nature
ski experience. The resort has great slopes, a ski lift, and the
nearby hotel boasts a heated indoor swimming pool for end of the day
relaxation.
These are just a few of the many excellent and state-of-the-art ski
resorts and facilities available in Turkey. Many of the resorts
offer heli-skiing for a more personal and selective ski vacation
experience. Snowboarding, ice skating, and snow biking are also
available. With multitudes of attractions, activities, and relaxing
hot springs, let Turkey be the premiere destination for your next
winter vacation!
