Top Meteora Tickets & Passes

Participate in a once in a lifetime experience in the woods below Meteora, in the fringes of Pindos mountains. Walk with the truffle hunter and his dogs. Search for rare species of truffle and then eat them with pasta made right in front of you.

Our hiking tour will start from Kastraki village, which is located very close to the Meteora rocks. Soon we will see the old ruins of Pantokrator monastery. From there we will walk through the huge rocks of Meteora by crossing a gorgeous forest. Very soon we will reach the monastery of Large Meteoron Metamorphosis, the first and largest monastery in this earlier monastic state. From the parking lot, we will hike on an old and abandoned trail to the secluded Ypapantis monastery, behind the rock towers. After a good round of 2 hours, we will come back to the Kastraki village. We will also visit some spots with awesome view of Kalambaka, the valley of Pinios and the great Pindos peaks. In total, we will visit the insides of 2 monasteries, depending on the day of visit.

This hiking tour is definately a unique experience because you get to see the side of Meteora that only a few people get to admire. You will explore the paths under the rocks, find "hidden gems" and learn about Meteora's history and myths through the eyes of locals.

Step off the tourist trail and discover the little-known routes that most Meteora visitors don't get to see. On this half-day small-group trip, which includes round-trip transport from Kalambaka, you’ll follow a guide on a leisurely hike from Doupiani rock to the lofty Grand Meteora Monastery. Along the way, pass Ypapanti and some of the smaller rock monasteries, and listen to fascinating commentary about the UNESCO-listed site's formation and history.

Hiking in Meteora without a guide may mean you miss hidden must-sees and history, or get lost. Make the most of the rock-pillar landscapes and monasteries on a half-day tour from Kalambaka with a hiking guide. Follow historical monks’ paths you might overlook alone, hear details on the area’s nature that many hikers miss, and visit one or two monasteries (own expense) on route. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included.
