Volos is one of the largest Greek cities and one of the most important ports in the country. It is located in central Greece (320 km north of Athens and 219 km south of Thessaloniki). A natural harbour in the Pagasetic Gulf and a stone’s throw from Mount Pelion.

Volos combines all the allure of the sea with the mystical beauty of the mountain of the Centaurs. The city is associated with the famed expedition of the Argonauts, one of the most important epics of Greek mythology

Mount Pelion rises to the north and east of Volos, a verdant mountain of legends and Centaurs and one of the most beautiful and bewitching in Greece. With an area of about 50 km and its peak rising to 1,624 m, Pelion seduces its visitors by perfectly combining the mountain and the sea. Dozens of renowned villages there have been listed as traditional settlements because of the exquisite natural landscape, unique cultural heritage and characteristic Pelion-style architecture.

As soon as you arrive in Pelion, you will realise that it is no ordinary tourist destination. It is like coming home, to the Greece you always dreamt of.
