About This Route

Mount Pelion is where 'the mountains meet the sea'. This legendary home of the Centaurs offers a lush, forested landscape with traditional stone villages perched on steep slopes. The drive is highy scenic but extremely winding and involves significant elevation changes. You'll drive from the port of Volos up into the chestnut forests and down to hidden Aegean beaches. It's a slow, vertical dance that requires a healthy engine and good brakes.
