7Pelion: A Tapestry of Colors in the Greek Mountains
Pelion, located on the eastern coast of mainland Greece, is a hidden gem known for its lush forests, traditional villages, and pristine beaches. In the fall, the mountain slopes come alive with a riot of colors as the leaves of chestnut, oak, and maple trees change from green to gold. Take a leisurely stroll through the charming villages of Makrinitsa, Portaria, and Tsagarada, where the streets are lined with vibrant foliage and the air is filled with the scent of woodsmoke. For outdoor enthusiasts, Pelion offers a variety of hiking trails that meander through the forested valleys and lead to panoramic viewpoints overlooking the Aegean Sea.
