We invite you to join us! more information: www.annahiking.nl (12-4-2020) SPWT220I: 6- or 7-day self-guided trekking South Pilion Trail About AnnaHiking In 1991 we visited Greece for the first time. Our love for the country, the culture, the climate, the food, the language and the Greek has grown ever since. Since 2009 we’ve been living in the mountains near Ioannina. We feel at home here and want to communicate this feeling to others. Many people are familiar with the Greek “islands with beautiful beaches”. The Pilion peninsula certainly boasts wonderful beaches, and also offers gurgling streams and waterfalls, old paved mule paths (‘kaldermímia’), classical mansions glued to the slopes and warm- hearted and hospitable people. We’d love to introduce you to this side of Greece! We explored several hiking routes and described them in detail. We regularly revise the routes and the description where necessary. As an individual traveller we offer you these descriptions together with GPS- tracks and marked detailed maps, so you can find your way easily. We also offer you an information package with background information, tips for the best meals and several other useful trivia. The tour location General tour information The trekking starts in Platanias in the south of the peninsula. Every day you walk to the next accommodatie (luggage is transferred), but you may extend your holiday with more overnight stays per accommodation. With the 6-day tour you walk directly from Platanias to Argalasti; with the 7-day tour you make an extra stop-over in Milina at the coast (red line). From several locations we offer more (circular) walks. You may also add extra days to take a rest or to relax on the beach. In Milies you may change track to one of our hiking tours in the Central Pilion. Net mean walking time is between 3½ and 5½ hours (that is excluding breaks). Two days you may choose a longer walk. You may split the first stage in two days, with an extra overnight stay in Milina next to the beach. www.annahiking.nl 2/13 ©AnnaHiking SPWT220I: 6- or 7-day self-guided trekking South Pilion Trail You often walk on wide ‘kalderimia’ (historical mule paths), sometimes on dirt roads, sometimes on small paths. In the description you’ll find the details so you can adapt your clothes and equipment accordingly. The routes are signposted and are shown on the hiking map; the paths are well maintained by The Friends of the Kalderimi. We advise you to start the trip trained and fit with well worn-in ankle-high hiking boots. Good shoes enable you to walk without worries about your feet so that you can fully enjoy the surroundings. The tour is for people who are curious to an unknown area and love the alternation between sea and inland. Possible extensions/alterations/abbrevations 1. From Platanias (the first overnight stay) you may make a circular tour along the mountain flanks to explore the south peninsula. You may also walk along the beach to the charming little neighbouring village Mikro (“Tiny”); it corresponds to its name. The accommodation in Platanias also offers excursions and you may follow a workshop to make biological soap. 2. From Milies we offer a circular walk to Kala Nera at the coast, partly along the tourist train railroad track. 3. It’s possible to divide the first 5-hour stage Platanias-Argalasti into two 4-hour stages with an overnight stay in Milina on the Pagasitic Gulf coast. 4. For a beach extension are suitable: Platanias, Milina and Kato Gatzea. The other villages are not situated near the coast. 5. Argalasti is the regional centre. It’s a lively and attractive little town with a famous farmer market on Saturday mornings. Agamemnon’s guest house boasts a swimming pool to make the stay even more pleasant. 6. In Milies you may change tracks to the last 3 stages of trekking along the ‘silk route’ of the Central Pilion. You may also proceed further to the northeast along the beaches or over the summits of the Central Pilion. We can offer you a tailor-made tour with these elements. For more information see the Pilion tours overview on our website. 7. You may extend your holiday yourself with a stay on the Sporades islands; daily boats sail from Volos to Skiathos, Skopelos and Alonissos. Walks can be made on the islands, travel bookshops offer various guides. 8. Finally you can combine the arrangement with (parts of) other tours we offer. We’ll gladly help you with the logistics. For all your wishes: ask for advice and an estimate! www.annahiking.nl 3/13 ©AnnaHiking SPWT220I: 6- or 7-day self-guided trekking South Pilion Trail About the Pilion The Pilion peninsula is curled around the Pegasitic Gulf. The sloping coastline along this bay offers lots of sandy beaches and charming villages. The coastline on the outer side, towards the Egean Sea, is more rough and consists of cliffs with hidden beaches and inlets. From the south rises the mountain range transversing the peninsula, with further north mysterious forests and gurgling streams. You may well imagine the roaming Centaurs, coarse creatures with a male torso on a horse’s body. A rare friendly centaur was Chiron, founder of surgery and teacher of Jason and Aesculapios. In Milies you are close to the magical spot where he supposedly stayed. The most important town is Volos, sixth in size, with its harbour, train connections to Thessaloniki and (with change of trains) Athens, and an airport (Nea Anchialos). Mythologically the town is renowned for Jason and the Argonauts. The narrow-track train that used to start in Volos connected the villages Agria, Ano Lechonia (1896) and Milies (1903) with the main town. The hinterland that until then only knew mule paths thus gained a connection to the town, which enhanced trade and wealth. Nowadays it runs from Ano Lechonia to Milies as a tourist train, first steam-operated, later diesel. In its steam days it was called ‘Moudzouri’, ‘sooty’, after the sooty traces it left behind. On the peninsula you’ll find many historical connecting paths and kalderimia (paved mule paths). The South Pelion Trail is maintained by the Friends of the Kalderimi. AnnaHiking supports this organisation through her membership and by a contributions for every hiker that books through us. The accommodations You’ll stay in small-scale family-run which we specifically chose for their quiet and lovely location. The accommodations in Platanias, Milina (only in the 7-day tour) and Kato Gatzea are situated on or near the beach. The other accommodations are inland. The accommodations in Argalasti and Milies offer a swimming pool. Bookable The arrangement can be booked from 10 April until 15 November. In summer (mid July-end August) it may be quite warm and the accommodations are soon booked to the full.

Most famous is the Chiron the Centaur, the wise tutor of many ancient demigods and heroes, such as Jason, Achilles, Theseus, Heracles and also Aesculapius, who then became the God of Medicine and gave life to the dead (Development Company of Pelion SA 2012:27). 2 Chiron the Centaur teaches Achilles Pelion was the place of residence of Gods in the summer and the place where the marriage of Thetis and Peleus took place. All the Olympian Gods were invited except for the goddess Eris because of her provocative inclinations. To take revenge, she brought a golden apple with the inscription "To the Fairest" and then the dispute arose between the goddesses Hera, Aphrodite and Athena. Paris, the Prince of Troy, was appointed to select the fairest by Zeus and he chose Aphrodite’s temptation that was Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world and wife of Menelaus of Sparta. Thus, the Trojan War began (Development Company of Pelion SA 2012:27). Jason and the Argonauts The voyage of Jason and the Argonauts to retrieve the Golden Fleece from the mythical land of Colchis was organized in Pelion too.

  • TECTONIC GEOMORPHOLOGY of ESCARPMENTS: the CASES of KOMPOTADES and ΝΕΑ ANCHIALOS FAULTS Zovoili E., Konstantinidi E
    Δελτίο της Ελληνικής Γεωλογικής Εταιρίας τομ. XXXVI, 2004 Bulletin of the Geological Society of Greece vol. XXXVI, 2004 Πρακτικά 10°" Διεθνούς Συνεδρίου, Θεσ/νίκη Απρίλιος 2004 Proceedings of the 10lh International Congress, Thessaloniki, April 2004 TECTONIC GEOMORPHOLOGY OF ESCARPMENTS: THE CASES OF KOMPOTADES AND ΝΕΑ ANCHIALOS FAULTS Zovoili E., Konstantinidi E. and Koukouvelas I.K. Department of Geology, Division of Physical Marine Geology and Geodynamics, University of Patras, 26500 Patras, Greece, [email protected] ABSTRACT Most active processes on the surface imply that tectonics and geomorphology converge in a way that landscape change may be used as a tectonic signal, given that erosion and weathering have been taken into account. We selected two faults, the Kompotades and the Nea Anchialos faults in the Sperchios and South Thessaly rift zones respectively, and we performed a morphometric analysis. This analysis comprises geomorphic indices that have been used successfully in studies of active tectonics, as the mountain front sinuosity index (Smf), stream gradient index (SL) and valley floor width to valley height ratio (Vf). At both studied mountain fronts, the Vf index ranged between 0,4 to 1,2, implying high uplift rates, while the Smf «1 index revealed relatively high tectonic activity, which decreases towards the west. On the other hand, the SL index though more sensitive to non-tectonic processes, (i.e. the rock resistance, stream length) is less indicative of tectonic activity. Based on the distribution of the geomorphic indices a two-fault strand model is suggested forming the mountain front in the two examples with the range-ward fault strand to be more appropriate for Kompotades fault and the basinward fault strand for Nea Anchialos fault.

  • 20 Top Things to Do in Pelion
    20 Top Things to Do in Pelion https://travelgreecetraveleurope.com/2017/01/31/top-things-to-do-in-pelion/ 1) Damouhari Port: Mama Mia Filmed Here The traffic-free coast of Damouhari has a more recent claim to fame as the location of the “Dancing Queen” scene in the Hollywood movie Mama Mia (2008) starring Meryl Streep. After our hike through Tsagarada we walked through the scenic port. I loved taking in the stunning rocky landscape, which seemed to be both wild and stunning at the same time. Damouhari Port, Pelion, to the right. Meryl Streep was here! 2) The Pelion Train The Pelion Train, also known as the Little Train of Pelion, is a narrow gauge (60 cm) train that seemed to me like a toy train with its maintained vintage look. It’s even parked in a colorful little train station. The train began operating more than a century ago between Volos and Lehonia in 1895 and between Lehonia and Milies in 1903. It covers 29 kilometers, on tracks that run through verdant forests and across 12 bridges. Tip: Return tickets are 18€ for adults and 10€ for kids. Further information for tickets, timetables, contact the Travel Office of Volos TRAINOSE +30 24210 39723. 3) Taksiarchon Church / Church of the Archangels I rate a visit to this church as one of the top things to do in Pelion because the stunning interior frescoes took me off guard. Located in the main square of Millies, the actual construction date of the church is unknown. However, it was renovated in 1741.
