The Pelion, a peninsula that runs out into the Aegean sea, delights its visitors with its chestnut-tree forests, its small traditional villages, its beaches of golden sand as well as its small fishing coves. The village of Kissos, 48 km from Volos, 550m up in the mountains, is located on the eastern coast within easy reach of both the sea and the mountains. In summer you might be attracted by the beautiful beach of Aghios Ioannis and its deep-blue waters or by the sunny back country. Once in Kissos you can explore its plane-tree shaded squares, its XIV century church to remind us that the Byzantine art is still alive. Beyond the Pelion you can drive up to the monasteries perched on peaks and called Meteoras. You can also visit the Sporades islands famous for their rare species of seals and dolphins. The main road that leads to the house takes through the eastern Pelion, from Melies to Zagora. You'll come up to a crossroad that will take you to St Constantin, a hamlet close to Kissos.
