Published January 9, 2026, 10:43

Snowfall and dense fog currently observed at the peak of Troodos have made all roads in the area slippery and dangerous. The road from Troodos Square to the peak of Mount Olympus is open only to vehicles equipped with anti-slip chains or four-wheel drive. Drivers are urged to be particularly careful, drive at low speeds, maintain a safe distance from vehicles ahead, and have their headlights on. These conditions require increased vigilance and adaptation while driving.
