ACTIVITIES

There is no shortage of unique activities to experience the charms of Pieria. 

The region lures visitors who love nature, culture, history, religious landmarks, watersports, hiking, trekking, and mountaineering activities offered all year round. In the winter the ski resort of Elatohori gives snowboarders and skiers a reason to smile, while, during the proverbially long Greek summer the coast of Pieria offers treasured moments of relaxation, fun, and adventure by the sea. 

Rock climbing around Olympus and the mountains of Pieria is an experience to remember and a paragliding adventure near the picturesque traditional village of Palaios Panteleimonas will give thrill-seekers the rush of adrenaline they are craving for. Horseback riding can be enjoyed in Palio Elatochori and at Ktima Irakli in Kato Milia while canyoning enthusiasts will fall in love with the gorges that are abundant in the area. If diving is your thing, you’ll be thrilled to discover the endless opportunities that the region has to offer. 

Don’t miss the opportunity to discover the beauties of Mount Olympus and the coast of Pieria embarking on a Jeep Safari full of adventure in picture-perfect landscapes.  
In the months of July and August, the Olympus Festival is worth to be noted on your cultural calendar with a wide variety of events organized in the area.
