Pelion, escape to the abode of the Gods
The beauty of the stone, the traditional mansions, the cobbled streets and the green landscape, make Pelion the number one destination for those who want a walk in nature, stunning views and quiet. It has rightly been described as a “destination for all seasons”, as it beautifully combines mountain and sea. The verdant slopes meet exotic beaches that compose a landscape of incomparable beauty, as the island color is perfectly combined with the Pelion elements.
According to Greek mythology, there was the summer residence of the Gods and homeland of the Centaurs (mythical creatures in human form in the body of a horse). It stretches from the Pagasitic Gulf in the west to the Aegean Sea in the east. Volos is built at its foot. Most houses are amphitheatrically built overlooking the sea. You will definitely love it as a winter destination, while you will love it for its turquoise waters, its “deceptive” beaches, but also for the combination between history and mythology.
The beaches of Pelion are well known for their crystal clear waters and their amazing scenery where Pelion Mountain meets the sea. It combines both the mountain and sea perfectly. The Aegean Sea is an ideal destination for families and those looking for romantic walks.
Pelion Mountain is full of small villages literally hanging from the all sides of Pelion with many places to visit and loose yourself among the local culture. Everything is built from stone and your are surrounded by the architectural uniqueness. Every place you visit is full of restaurants where you can also find authentic Greek cuisines with local culinary twists.
You will completely loose your sense of time and relax and enjoy one of the most scenic and green areas in all of Greece.
