In the Greek town of Metsovo - a true winter paradise for active recreation

Metsovo is a charming Greek town located among mountainous landscapes and attracts tourists with its ski slopes and ambiance. Here everyone can find entertainment - whether it's skiing or snowboarding, or delicious dishes in local taverns.

Located near the Greek Pindos mountains, Metsovo is famous for its clean water.

Recently, the tourist portal Visit Greece recognized Metsovo as the 'pearl of Epirus' and named it the ideal place for winter holidays.

According to the description on the site, Metsovo in winter looks like a picture wrapped in fog or a snowy blanket. It is a favorite location for locals and visitors in Epirus, where benefactors of different nationalities come.

Although Metsovo is busiest in winter, its location on the coast of the Ionian Sea and cultural heritage make it a wonderful place for recreation throughout the year.

Near the town is Lake Aoos, which is worth visiting for walks.

The gastronomic diversity of Metsovo includes Greek cuisine, particularly delicious smoked cheese and Cabernet Sauvignon wine.

The ease of access also plays an important role. The nearest airport is less than an hour's drive in Ioannina, or you can choose a more picturesque route through Thessaloniki and travel by train.
