Skiing in Serbia

Kopaonik is the main ski resort in the European country of Serbia, characterised by its focus on runs aimed more at the beginner than the technically advanced winter sports enthusiast. Named after the mountain that provides it with the ski runs, Kapaonik is a resort that can boast natural beauty as well as a good selection of runs.

Easy does it

Ski holidays in Serbia are perfect for those looking for a number of easy runs to ease themselves into this popular winter sport. Half of the Kopaonik runs are designated as easy, with a further three seen as easy to medium. Just four of the resort's slopes are classified as hard, suggesting Serbia ski holidays are better suited to the beginner skier.

Kopaonik is really a resort focused on skiers, with very little specialist action for snowboarders.
