According to an announcement on Thursday from the centre, the bears are now up and ready for visitors.

As every other year at the sanctuary, the two younger bears Manolis and Kyriakos awoke first, slowly followed by Vesna, Mitsos, Katerina, Tasoula and Barbara.

Giorgakis and Irene once again shared their den and woke up together but still prefer to spend most of their time 'indoors'. George and Tasoula slept in natural dens within the refuge while Barbara rebuilt her den, in which she spent the winter according to ANA-MPA

With the awakening of bears, Arcturos is now up and running once again and will be ready to receive visitors from this Saturday, opening on a daily basis (except Wednesdays) and at weekends from 10.00-16.30.
