Kolašin Winter Season Opening

Kolašin opens Montenegro's ski winter each mid-December with a three-day celebration shared between the town and the mountain — the 2025/26 season kicked off on 12–14 December. The programme links Trg boraca, the main town square, with the Kolašin 1600 ski centre on Bjelasica.

In town, the square hosts a winter bazaar and live music — the 2025 opening featured Petar Bulatović and Srećko Savović — while the mountain gets a dedicated Kids' Day at Kolašin 1600 and the weekend closes with a DJ party on the slopes.

The occasion matters because of what it opens: Kolašin 1450 and Kolašin 1600 together form Montenegro's largest connected ski area, with around 45 kilometres of runs on Bjelasica reaching roughly 1,973 metres. With an adult day pass at €25 for 2025/26, it is marketed as the cheapest skiing in Europe, and snowmaking keeps the season running from mid-December to mid-April.

The opening weekend is held in mid-December in Kolašin, with free entry to the bazaar, concerts and parties; skiing is charged per the resort price list at skijalista.me.
