Stone Bridge with Ancient Trees

Highlight • Bridge

Romantic little stone bridge that is very stable. No water flows through it in the summer, but I can imagine it being useful in the spring after the snow melts.

May 22, 2024,Wandern in Thessalien, Griechenland, Tag 4: Zu den Meteora Klöstern

Although our hiking week is not over yet, today was an absolute highlight! The rock formations alone, which were created millions of years ago by conglomerates, are astonishing. The monasteries, which were founded and built between the 11th and 14th centuries and which nestle artfully into the rock faces or sit enthroned on the rocky peaks, are also amazing masterpieces …

Impressive but steep climb up a path/staircase through the forest, straight to Meteora Megalo Monastery. Easy descent through beautiful rock/forest surroundings.
