Trail description

A walk on old monk paths among the extraordinary rock pinnacles of Meteora, topped by centuries old monasteries. The trail climbs from the village of Kastraki between the towers with the great buildings perched high above. Magical in the soft light of morning, before the tour buses arrive.
