Akdağ Ski Center, which is 84 kilometers from Samsun city center, 24 kilometers from Samsun-Ankara highway and 7 kilometers from the district center, became the center of attention of ski lovers with its 1400 meters of track and 1360 meters of chair lift. The center, where skiing is performed at an altitude of 1500-1770 meters, has attracted the attention of citizens in these days when snowfall is effective.

Taking advantage of the interruption of face-to-face education in schools due to the coronavirus epidemic, students would have their snow cravings at Akdağ Ski Center.
