Snow in Tinos

Snow covered Tinos. Winter 2015

Snow in Tinos

A scenery that is reminiscent of the Alps albeit in the… Cyclades.

This year winter was quite harsh in Tinos as the island was hit by a snow storm of unusual intensity covering the whole island, from shores to mountains, with tenths of cm of snow!

As it is evident from the pictures the landscape was totally snow covered and in some areas, mostly the northern parts of the island, where Steni, Falatados and Myrsini villages are, the snow was more than 60cm deep!!! A rare sight to the locals… snow in Tinos!!
