Visitor Reviews of Helmos


SnowBlades from GREECE writes:

Yes, I agree with the rest of you. It IS a great mtn, however it does have some serious problems, a lot of which can be fixed for little or no money, so why doesn't the management do anything to improve conditions? I have no idea. Here are my suggestions - (Mr Tsekouras are you listening?)

1. To improve the long lift lines: have the stupid lift attendants MAKE skiers FILL THE CHAIRS. It's ridiculous for 1 person to hog a 3-person chair lift. During peak hours, if skiers were made to fill the chairs, the wait time would be reduced by half.

2. How to improve safety: the outdoor areas around the lower chalet are very slippery and I've seen many people slip, fall and get hurt. How about putting some salt or rubber mats on these slippery areas? And the entrance to the chalet should have rubber mats - it's also a very slippery area and dangerous. PLUS, the upper chalet, the hall leading to the bathrooms - put rubber mats in there too. OR at least some salt.

3. Add one more "ticket kiosk" for the weekends. The existing one is not enough and you have to wait in line forever just to buy a lift ticket... Or how about buying tickets ON LINE through the kalavrita-ski website?

4. Do something with that big stone chalet on the upper level of the mtn. It's a pretty building and it should be put to use. How about using the lower level of that building for lockers and storage???
