Meteora nearby
About an hour by car from Elati and Pertouli: the monasteries of Meteora stand on top of huge rock pillars above the town of Kalambaka and the village of Kastraki, in Thessaly. Six of them are still active and open to visitors, and the old footpaths between the rocks make for some of the most memorable short hikes in Greece. Meteora is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
