01 Playing in the snow

A name that means sacred frenzy.

The name Menalo is ancient Greek. It means sacred frenzy, the madness that wild nature brings. The mountain lies in the middle of the Peloponnese and covers most of northern Arcadia, with its highest peak at 1,981 m.

If snow falls while you are here, go up and play in it. All you need is the snow.

02 The idea

Be children again.

Leave your obligations behind for a few hours. The menu is a white landscape, something hot to drink and a lot of play.

For skiing and sledges, go to the ski centre; for a quiet walk, see a walk in the snow.
