Live Cams in Thessaly

Thessaly (Θεσσαλία) is a region in central Greece that encompasses much of the historic area of the same name. It is surrounded by the Aegean Sea to the east and bordered by the regions of Central Greece to the south, Epirus to the west, and Macedonia to the north. Among its remarkable features is Meteora, a stunning complex of monasteries perched atop towering rock formations. The region is also home to Mount Olympus, the tallest peak in Greece, as well as the picturesque, forested slopes of Mount Pelion, which hosts a popular ski resort at its peak. Renowned for its natural beauty, Mount Pelion lies between the Aegean Sea and the nearly enclosed Pagasetic Gulf. Additionally, the charming villages surrounding Lake Plastira, along with the coastal towns, offer excellent beaches that attract visitors.
