Reviewed By amantzou - Athens, Greece
One of my favorite mountain destination at any time of the year. Surrounded by 18 villages, is certain that beauty in combination with the great accommodation in lodgings will make your days very interesting and beautiful also. At Kalivia Pezoulas you can do horse riding, archery and canoe-kayak. Many good dining options in the areas tavernas. I recommend Plastira Lake for calm and relaxion.
Tip: At the Autumn and winter the fog hides the lake view.

I visited Karditsa town several times in the last couple of years. This is because from here I can reach, relatively easy, the Plastiras Lake and all beautiful mountain villages around it. But another reason is Pafsilipo Park. The main attractions of this park are the peacocks. They strolling free all around the park, they are used with people and become interested very soon about you if you have at hand some bred, or biscuits, or … something. It is very nice to walk among them! The park is nice, clean and quite big for a town as Karditsa. Here you can walk or use a bicycle, which is great for a nice afternoon.

This place was the highlight of my visit to Karditsa. It is an amazingly preserved castle and one of the nicest I have ever seen.
Me and my friend had an amazing tour around the castle- free of charge (only in Greek though).
We were very lucky to have been able to visit every corner of the castle since they are planning to to build fences, stairs etc.
Under the guides supervision we were allowed to go up to each tower and take photographs.
Really amazing place with a lot of history !

A landscape full of water and trees. The ideal destination for relaxation, offering countless biking and hiking routes, sports, swimming in the lake, and mountain skiing.

Στα Καλύβια Πεζουλας λειτουργεί η Tavropos που προσφέρει δυνατότητες για κάποια αθλήματα σε όσους κάνουν διακοπές στη γύρω περιοχή.
Αθλήματα όπως mountain bike, υδροποδήλατο στη λίμνη , κανόε, τοξοβολία. Σε όλα υπάρχουν επιβλέποντες που μαθαίνουν , κυρίως τα παιδιά, για το πως θα καταφέρουν να υλοποιήσουν πιο γρήγορα πράγματα που θα τους βοηθήσουν στη δραστηριότητα αυτή.
Οι εκπαιδευτές με πολυ υπομονή, οι εγκαταστάσεις όμως σίγουρα οριακά επαρκείς, χρειάζονται κάποιες βελτιώσεις. Μια πολυ φιλότιμη όμως προσπάθεια που κυρίως τις γιορτές η τα Σ/Κ έχει σημαντική ανταπόκριση.
6. Koroni Monastery

A disappointment. This place was on route as part of our visit around this area of the Peloponnese. The monastery nun's supply cover up items of clothing, but there wasn't anything to see, apart from a church on the grounds. It was located up a narrow road and steep steps up. If I never visited, I wouldn't have missed anything. Photo opportunities are of roof tops... Not outstanding.

Οι καταρράκτες ήταν προτεινόμενη πεζοπορία από το ξενοδοχείο monntanema που μέναμε. Αποφασίσαμε να πάμε και δεν το μετάνιωσε. Φανταστική διαδρομή μέσα στα έλατα με χιόνι που είχε αρχίσει να λιώνει και τη φύση να προετοιμαζεται για την άνοιξη. Οι καταρράκτες πανέμορφοι. Μόνο να φοράτε κατάλληλα αδιάβροχα παπούτσια πεζοπορίας. Μην το χάσετε
8. Smokovo Baths

Reviewed By Tomek86 - Copenhagen, Denmark
While in Thessaly one of the plans was to visit Loutra Smokovou and the thermal springs- spa.
When me and a friend arrived there it felt like a Walt Disney film, beautiful nature, fresh air, sound of river, Mountains and the pink building of the spa.
All the local hotels are in a stone's throw distance.
Thermal spa is opened only on weekends in the winter time and everyday in the summer season.
I can recommend it to anyone in the area. Just amazing.

An Archaiological Museum at the center of Karditsa. Its exhibition is about the history of the western Thessaly from the prehistoric period to roman era. Someone can see objects found at archaiological excavations from the early 20th century untill now.

Πρόκειται για ένα μικρό κόσμημα με τον περιβάλλοντα χώρο του στο κέντρο της πόλης Καρδίτσας. Είναι ένα σύγχρονο κτίριο και έχει διάφορα ευρήματα από την Παλαιολιθική ακόμα εποχή.
Πολύ ενδιαφέρον έκθεμα είναι το χάλκινο άγαλμα του θεού Απόλλωνα με ιδιαίτερα χαρακτηριστικά πολεμιστή που έρχονται να το δούνε πολλοί ειδικοί ή λάτρεις της αρχαιολογίας και από το εξωτερικό.
Επίσης, θεωρώ σωστό να μεταφερθεί σε αυτό το μουσείο το γνωστό αγαλματίδιο/ειδώλιο "Στοχαστής" που βρίσκεται στο Εθνικό Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο Αθηνών μια και έχει βρεθεί στην περιοχή της Καρδίτσας και πρέπει να βρίσκεται στο αντίστοιχο μουσείο!

Μια διαφορετική επιλογή που αξίζει να επιλέξετε, ειδικά αν έχετε παιδιά.
Είναι καλά οργανωμένο και έχει πολύ ωραία θέα. Ιδανικό για να δοκιμάσει κάποιος τα άλογα και την ιππασία.
