The Salonica View alternative tourism office organizes a one-day excursion and hike to one of the most beautiful gorges in Greece, the Stravopotamos gorge.
A few words about our excursion:
We will start early by bus from Thessaloniki, specifically from the statue of Venizelos in Aristotelous Square. From there, after two hours, we will reach Mount Paiko. At this point, the mountain guide and leader of the expedition will talk to us about the route the group will follow. Next, we will start our journey, together with our experienced guide, and we will walk the path that leads to the Stravopotamos gorge. The route is excellent and well worth it.
