The Estonian Embassy in Turkey organised a spirited cross-country skiing festival in Turkey’s Bolu Province on Sunday, 7 February.

The snow and sun brought together around a thousand skiing fans from all over Turkey, as well as foreign diplomats from Ankara and Istanbul. The guests of honour skiing the course were Secretary General of the Estonian Foreign Ministry Marten Kokk and Secretary General of the Finnish Foreign Ministry Pertti Torstila.

The skiing was followed by an open-air reception dedicated to the 92nd anniversary of the Republic of Estonia.

The Estonian Embassy in Ankara would like to thank all of its partners, especially the governor of Bolu and the mayor, without whom this year’s ski festival would not have been possible.
