What you can expect

Seize the opportunity to admire the breath-taking scenery of the immense rock pillars of Meteora, a place of amazing natural beauty and tranquility.

Mostly comprising of sandstone and conglomerate, the caves at Meteora are thought to have been inhabited as early as 50,000 years ago. In the 9th century, monks began inhabiting the rocks again and in the 14th century the first monasteries were built. Nowadays, Meteora is home to one of the most important complexes of Eastern Orthodox monasteries. All six of these monasteries are built on large naturally-formed pillars. A few kilometres away from the city of Kalambaka, Meteora is waiting to fascinate visitors with breath-taking views and unique natural beauty.
