Ski lift operators open more slopes in the Krkonoše and Orlické Mountains

Lift operators in the eastern Krkonoše (Giant) Mountains, the Orlické Mountains and the Králický Sněžník area are opening more ski slopes after several days of freezing temperatures enabled full-scale snowmaking. Resorts expanding their offer include Říčky in the Orlické Mountains, Malá Úpa in the Krkonoše Mountains and Dolní Morava, where the length of open runs has increased by about a third. Skiing has also started in České Petrovice. More resorts, including Mladé Buky and Černá hora, plan to open additional lifts and slopes at the weekend. Conditions remain based almost entirely on artificial snow, as natural snowfall is minimal.
