Pelion Tradition Routes – Pinakates, Vizitsa & Milies
Overview
Your journey begins in Pinakates, a quiet mountain village known for its unspoiled character and traditional stone architecture. Enjoy a leisurely stroll through its narrow cobblestone streets and admire historic houses that have remained unchanged for centuries.
Continue to the nearby village of Vizitsa, renowned for its elegant archontika (traditional mansions) and harmonious architectural style. During your visit, enjoy a tasting of local honey and traditional Pelion products, offering an authentic introduction to the region’s culinary heritage.
The tour concludes in Milies, one of Pelion’s most historic villages, nestled among chestnut and olive trees. Discover its rich cultural past with visits to the Church of Taxiarches, dating back to 1741, and the local folklore museum.
You will have free time in Milies to explore at your own pace. Visit the charming station of the legendary Pelion steam train or enjoy a traditional Greek lunch at a local taverna.
