[edit] PERTOULI

Pertouli is a small mountain village within the province of Trikala in Greece and is situated at an altitude of 1,150 metres on the central part of the Pindos mountain range.

The name Pertouli is most famous for the nearby Ski resort that is very popular with snow sports fans in central Greece. According to the official resort website http://www.cybex.gr/pertouliskiarea the ski runs start at 1,170m and the highest point is at 1,340m altitude. The longest run has a distance of 1,500 metres.

The ski resort of Pertouli is relatively small, even by Greek standards and has suffered from unreliable snow conditions in the past few years due to its low altitude. The area around the ski resort is one of the most beautiful mountainous scenery of central Greece and the ski runs twist and turn through a fir-covered mountainside.
