Stone Bridge with Ancient Trees

Highlight • Bridge

Romantic little stone bridge that is very stable. No water flows through it in the summer, but I can imagine it being useful in the spring after the snow melts.

Great Meteoron Monastery (Megalo Meteoro)

Highlight • Religious Site

The Megalou Meteorou or Metamorphoseos Monastery is the oldest, largest and most official of all the existing Meteora monasteries today, as its name 'Megalo Meteoro' (Great Meteoro) states. On its imposing rock, it has a dominant position in the monastery group of Meteora.

October 9, 2022,Several Meteora Monastries – Monastery Megalou Meteorou Runde von Καστράκι

Break days at the very good campsite near Meteora. Very big and you have your peace. I was in the last corner. Lots of Germans, lots of cyclists ♥
Hike to the monasteries, which can be reached surprisingly quickly on foot. Impressive. In the evening I eat gift grapes 🍇
