Useful notes
Lailias Ski Center created and operated, continuously since 1978, from Hellenic Alpine Club of Serres and remains under its management. Has a lot of good snowing, lasting 3-4 months (late November to mid March) despite the mountain’s medium altitude. Its north orientation helps snow to be preserved for many months, so the season is long.
It is famous for its Lang-Lauf slopes. Indeed, it is considered to be, together with the 3-5 Pigadia Ski Center, the best ski resorts in Greece, for that sport.
Ski Center’s highlight is night skiing, every Saturday night, as the slope is equipped with the necessary lighting.
Due to exceptional weather conditions, you could visit the region all the year around, for walking, sports, hiking, and of course in winter for skiing. International hiking runs E4 & E6 passing through Lailias, also.
For children from 8 to 15 years old, operates on the summer the "mountain summer camp". Shelter of Hellenic Alpine Club of Serres accommodate the children, where there is a restaurant too for theirs feeding. Outdoor activities take place in Lailias forest.
In the nearby forest, which is of high scientific and educational value, there are some of the rarest species of Greek flora & fauna. The forest is located in the heart of Serres controlled hunting area and considered as a core saving, by constant prohibition of hunting. EOK directive 79/409 "on the conservation of wild birds", protects ten birds’ species, of total recorded in the forest. Equally important is the flora of the region. The part of the forest called "sfagnonas" is protected by the Ministry of Rural Development and Food and was declared a natural monument restored. Finally, researches about forest’s situation and growth, on the after-ice age period, are taking place too.
