Cheaper winter sports getaways promised by Crystal with new resorts announced

Winter sports holidays to resorts in the Balkan nations of Bosnia Herzegovina have gone on sale with Crystal Ski Holidays for the upcoming 2022/23 winter season. The UK’s biggest ski tour operator has pledged to make its winter getaways as affordable with Bosnia and Herzegovina now the cheapest destination on offer, at an average of £200 cheaper than other similar resorts.

Having hosted the Winter Olympics back in 1984, the new destination is perfect for skiers and snowboarders, with fantastic slopes for beginners, traditional mountain meals packed full of flavour, and wallet-friendly prices. The tour operator - owned by TUI - is launching two resorts in the destination, Jahorina and Bjelašnica.

Jahorina, Bosnia and Herzegovina’s largest ski area, is a 45-minute transfer from Sarajevo International Airport and offers speedy lifts, and scenic, tree-lined skiing with three beginner areas. The altitude ranges from 1,300 – 1,900 metres and presents the opportunity for great snow conditions, with 47km of pistes.
