Portaria

Portaria is best known in Greece for the Centaurs’ Path, a walking route linked to the mythology of Mount Pelion. Set on Pelion’s western slopes above Volos, the town faces towards the Pagasetic Gulf and is surrounded by woodland of chestnut trees, plane trees and beech. Its cooler mountain air has long made it a summer retreat for residents of Volos. Stone houses, slate roofs, fountains and narrow lanes reflect the building traditions shared by Pelion’s settlements. Portaria is also a useful starting point for walks and short drives across the peninsula, from highland forests to coastal communities.
