Mount Pelion
Mouresi Village in Pelion
This village is one of the oldest in Pelion. It is at an altitude of 370m and is 60km from Volos. It was built on a hill surrounded by chestnut trees. In the old days, Mouresi was situated in the place where the village of Damouhari lies today.
The cobble-stoned square is just beautiful and is surrounded by large trees. Located on the main square is the church of Agia Triatha.
If you enjoy walking, you should try and take a walk in the forest. Just follow the path that leads south to Tsagarada. A little further out of the village on the way to Papa Nero, on a hill, you will see the ruins of a Venetian castle.
July 20th is the name day for "Profiti Hilia" and is celebrated with a festival. Other festivals take place on July 27th for the celebration of Agio Panteleimona, and August 27th for Agio Fanourio.
For swimming you should go to Damouhari beach with its pebbles, or Papa Nero with its beautiful golden sand.
