Falakro

So many memories…
From a child when I stepped on his slopes …
I was always impressed by his funny name …

Falakro…

And yet every time I asked …
Why is it called Falakro (Falakro means bald in greek)?
Since it has trees!

Why is it called Falakro, since it has trees?

Yes, but his tops are naked …

A bald peak

As if it were bald!!!

From an altitude onwards, the baldness begins

So again I decided to climb to the bare peaks …
For a walk, a break from the city.

The nudity in all its grandeur

Climbing the road the first one you encounter after an altitude is a panoramic view of the neighboring mountains …

The Orbellus

The Pangeon Mountain

The view was too good to let her go wasted.

A road as it climbs up like a snake in Falakro

At one point there is a hut made of tin.

The hut of my dreams

I always thought what a great thing to be up there.

It even has a stove

With a stove for warmth and good companionship …
Maybe alone why do not ..?

The view from my “hut”

Absolute silence prevails everywhere …
All that sounds is the whistle of the wind.

Beautiful Pictures

Absolute silence.

Pangeo and a road in the valley

Going higher we approach the peaks.
I do not want to go to the ski resort.
It will have a lot of people.

The Big nothing

I decide to go to a neighboring peak that I like very much.
I have been visiting her often for the last time.

It has a very beautiful view of the basin and surrounding areas.

The imposing Pangea

Compressed snow – formations

The familiar peak with the chalet and the lifts also appears

Falakri might be a very popular ski resort…
But there are always areas off the road,
πολλές φορές δίπλα μας…
Που περνάνε απαρατήρητες.

In the next article my experiences from another ascent.
