Description of the attraction
Mount Belasitsa is located 8 km from Kolashin. It is covered with fir and century-old beech forests. The ski season in this area starts in November and ends in late spring. The depth of the snow cover in winter sometimes reaches three meters, but the grassy slopes create comfort for skiing even with a small amount of snow.
The northern side of Belasitsa is equipped with several slopes, the total length of which is 15 km. The main of all the tracks is 4.5 km long. The beginning of the route is located at an altitude of just below 2 km, and the end is 1.5 km, i.e. the height difference is 560 meters, and the slope of the track, in turn, is 60 degrees. All this makes it possible for thrill-seekers to enjoy breathtaking skiing.
Tracks of all difficulties are located on the territory: from simple descents to professional difficult routes, which are connected to each other by drag and chair lifts. Two of the tracks equipped in Belasitsa have a FIS certificate for holding international competitions in this place. There are also equipped trails for cross-country skiers. Some of the slopes can be used at night - for this special lighting was equipped there. In the near future, it is planned to expand the ski area, as well as to lay additional new tracks, the length of which will reach 65 km.
