This winter vacation in the Krkonoš mountains will bring new opportunities for switching slopes and enjoying the mountains after skiing. The most significant change is planned in Špindlerův Mlýn: the first phase of the long-prepared connection between Medvědín and Svatý Petr is set to facilitate the transfer between the two main parts of the ski area in the 2026/2027 season.
From Medvědín slopes to Svatý Petr
From Medvědín, skiers will be able to access the new slope to Hromovka, from where they can continue on a six-seater chairlift with heated seats and protective bubbles. This way, they can switch between the slopes of both parts of the area in one day without needing to transfer by car or ski bus.
In the winter of 2026/2027, the connection will be one-way, from Medvědín to Svatý Petr. The opposite direction will be ensured by the next phase: a ten-seater gondola lift from terminal P1 to the top of Medvědín. A complete two-way connection is planned for the 2027/2028 season.
The Špindl SkiOpening is scheduled for December 12, 2026. According to the latest press release, ski passes are already on sale. You can find details on the website of the Špindlerův Mlýn Ski Area.
Černá hora and Pec: snowmaking and experiences after dark

The season opening is planned for December 5, 2026, at Panorama Park on Černá hora. Beginner skiers and non-skiers will find a covered moving carpet, slopes for tobogganing, and facilities at the upper station of the gondola lift.
