****
In addition to the main islands of Corfu, Crete and Rhodes, the cities of Athens and Thessaloniki (see each page for its own winter details) Greece Rediscovered is proud to promote the following destinations during the winter months.

Ioannina is the largest town in Epiros and the capital of the area. The town is located along the shores of a lake, known in ancient times as Pamvotis and renowned for the beauty of its natural surroundings. |
The city of Volos is situated at the centre of the Greek mainland, at an approximately equal distance from the country's two main urban centres, Athens and Salonica. Thanks to its privileged position at the foot of Mt. Pelion on the Pagasitic gulf, it is a good base for enjoying the sea, wooded slopes, and green valleys that surround it. |

Karpenisi Is the capital of Eurytania. Has built on the foothills of Mount Timfristos at an altitude of 960m/2438ft. The spectacular countryside of Eurytania enchants anyone who approaches it. The healthy climate, the forested slopes and the countless streams give the impression of heaven on Earth. |
The Halikidiki Peninsula is shaped like Poseidon's trident, the peninsulas of Cassandra, Sithonia and mount Athos meet the sparkling Aegean Sea to the South. The area has unique characteristics including long sandy beaches, remote monasteries clinging to the side of towering mountains, historic sites, superb scenery, vineyards, wild flowers and scented pine forests. The beaches of Halkidiki are famous for their clear blue waters, their fine sand and the rich vegetation. |
