A few words about Vermio:
Mount Vermio is located in Western Macedonia, as it rises west of Thessaloniki. It occupies parts of the prefectures of Imathia, Kozani, and Pella, while in its northern parts it is connected to the southern ends of Mount Vora (Kaimaktsalan) in the straits of Edessa and the basin of Lake Vegoritida. Vermio is a verdant mountain with beeches, chestnuts, firs, and oaks. Also, an important forest species of Vermio is the chestnut. Its highest peak is called Hamitis and is located at an altitude of 2,065 m, with stunning views of the neighboring mountains. The gentle morphology of Vermio has made it a favorite destination for mountain lovers.
