Foreign visitors can\u2019t imagine Crete with snow. Let alone a mountain ski race to be organised every two years on Psiloritis mountain. The event is real and its name is Pierra Creta.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Sunday we drove up to the snow-capped mountain with hundreds of skiers and spectators. Snow was 2 metres high, it was foggy and cold and rained frequently. But 200 participants, among them some foreigners from seven different countries, made it to the finish!\u00a0<\/p>\n

It was a surreal event. A modern mountain activity combined with authentic Cretan culture. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Enjoy the photos!<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.18.6″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/theworldoffroad.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/TheWorldOffroad_Temperidis-TheWorldOffroad_Temperidis_Pierra_Creta-DSC08162.jpg” align_tablet=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.23.3″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.22.3″][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.18.6″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/theworldoffroad.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/TheWorldOffroad_Temperidis-TheWorldOffroad_Temperidis_Pierra_Creta-DSC08126.jpg” align_tablet=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.23.3″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.18.6″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/theworldoffroad.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/TheWorldOffroad_Temperidis-TheWorldOffroad_Temperidis_Pierra_Creta-DSC08116.jpg” align_tablet=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.23.3″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.18.6″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/theworldoffroad.com\/2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/TheWorldOffroad_Temperidis-TheWorldOffroad_Temperidis_Pierra_Creta-DSC08157.jpg” align_tablet=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.23.3″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
