On the outskirts of South Pelion, at an altitude of 310 meters and within 56 kilometers away from Volos, a country village called Lafkos is located. The story starts at the end of the 15^th century, with a tradition in mores and customs which dates back in centuries. As far as its name is concerned, there are various points of view, one of which reports that it comes from the word “glafkos”, which means clean and bright, just like the horizon in Lafkos.

The green mountains, the clean air and the smiling people are few of the first images and senses that are experienced from the first moment. Descending the cobblestone streets, you can see the grandiose stone mansions, the old stone fountains, while there are numerous paths that connect Lafkos with the around villages.

The village is meant to offer countless routes, accompanied by the aromas of the nature and the scents from the kitchens of the households. The ideal period, to visit Lafkos, starts in May and lasts till October, as the nature is at its peak of flowering and the liveliness of the village is presented through the cultural events that take place in Lafkos. This destination constitutes the departure for excursions to close beaches at the Pagasetic Gulf and the Aegean Sea.
