                  1. Beaches, many beautiful beaches you will find in eastern Pelion that you will never forget.

See all beaches in eastern Pelion.
                  2. A nice path is the path that leads to the secret school near the beach of Fakistra. A common point of both is that the route to the Secret School starts from the parking lot that you leave your car when you go to Fakistra. The path to the Secret School is beautiful and anyone can do it, and it has benches along the way for those who want to take a breath. A beautiful path that we walked on and presented it in detail with photos in our article Hiking route to the Secret School.

                  pelion where to stay3. The village of Kissos – Kissos is a very well hidden secret of Pelion that you should visit. Park your car in the large parking area that you will find at the entrance of the village and walk a few meters and then you will find yourself at the beautiful stone-paved square of the village where you will see one of the main sights of the village, the church of Agia Marina. If you want to walk in the narrow streets of Kissos then one of the most beautiful paths in Kissos is the path to the chapel of Agios Efstathios, ideal for an evening walk.
                  4. If you are wondering where to eat delicious food, located in Kissos or near Kissos, then the tavern next to the village square called “Sinantisi” (=Meeting) is your destination. Delicious food, large portions and special dishes with very good flavors. If you go once at “Sinantisi” then you will to visit it again and again.
                  5. Visit the Digital Museum & Miniature Museum. The museum is located in Tsagarada in the neighborhood of Agia Paraskevi in ​​the building of Achilopoulos Emporiki School. Inside the museum you will be able to see exhibits of the area projected in digital three-dimensional format and miniature. If you want to visit it, you should call first at 0030 24260 48855. Also in Tsagarada you will find the Nanopouleio School which is designated by UNESCO as an Art Project in 1985.
                  6. Visit the village of Tsagarada with its ancient plane trees, the running waters and the stone-built cobblestone streets one of the most important sights you will find in Tsagarada Square and specifically in the district of Agia Paraskevi is the famous plane tree that covers the square and is aged 1000 years, with a perimeter of 14 meters and its roots being 4 meters below the ground. The majority of visitors visiting Tsagarada go to see the huge plane tree standing there for so many years, covering the whole square and the visitors who sit to enjoy their coffee. Also, if you find yourself in the district of Agioi Taxiarches (again in Tsagarada) you will see a slightly younger plane tree of 800 years and 17.5 meters perimeter.
                  7. An award-winning beach, not unjustly, for its rare beauty, is the Fakistra beach. Fakistra is a small beach that, as it passes through the years, is getting smaller and smaller because many stones from the sea are coming out on the beach, making the beach smaller and the space to spread your towel less and less. Thus, Fakistra is located in a magnificent location near Tsagarada. Follow the signs from Tsagarada to Fakistra and leave your car there. There follows a 15 minute downhill trail that makes many visitors think of the uphill return. The path is easy and slowly and even the uphill “goes out”. Fakistra is a beach worth visiting. Read our article about how to get to Fakistra.

                  fakistra pelion8. Visit Damouchari. Damouchari and Fakistra are one of the most famous destinations in eastern Pelion. Damouhari is known for its natural beauty, since it is a seaside settlement with few inhabitants, picturesque taverns next to the sea and rooms to let and hotels to stay. If you are wondering what to eat somewhere quiet then the taverns you will find in Damouchari is a good choice. You will also find a pebble beach that has truly crystal clear waters.
                  9. One of the many popular activities is hiking on the paths of Pelion.

                  10. Visit Zagora that offers its visitors an authentic Pelion experience as it remains picturesque, unchanged from tourism and surrounded by unique nature.
