Continental Greece (Greek: Στερεά Ελλάδα, Stereá Elláda; formerly Χέρσος Ἑλλάς, Chérsos Ellás), colloquially known as Roúmeli (Ρούμελη), is a traditional geographic region of Greece. In English the area is usually called Central Greece, but the equivalent Greek term (Κεντρική Ελλάδα, Kentrikí Elláda) is more rarely used.

I couldn't imagine that there is such a place in Greece. "Well done" for the people-volunteers who designed and made this park. It has almost everything. You can walk, you can enjoy many different activities in nature, you can even play bowling and swim (in summer)! We spend tho hours walking and I'm not a trekking person at all. Hope to go again and explore the whole area soon.

The canyon is a hidden jem. Be prepared to wet yourself on the river and walk for approximately 45 min till you get to its impressive point where water falls from all the edges of the canyon. The scenery is otherworldly and diving in the cold water under the falls is definitely a worth living experience. The river trek is easy, not tiring at all, does not require any experience or special equipment and it is also excellent for families (though I would recommend not too young children). The road to get there is kinda rough - you will need a proper 4x4 vehicle to get there. If you don't have such a vehicle, you can use a guide, such as Trekking Hellas, as we did and I highly recommend that.

The Monastery of Proussos was named after the Icon of Panagia Prousiotissa from Prousa in Minor Asia, according to a legend painted by Luke the Evangelist. It is 31 km north of Karpenisi. It was build in the 9th century (some say 12th century). According to a legend the monastery was founded during the period of the Byzantine Emperor Theophilos (829-842) who was an iconoclast ( against the use of icons). To protect the icon it was decided by supporters of the use of icons to move it to a safe place. The two persons responsible to find a place for the icon who came in Proussos decided to stay here and to build a monastery, and they were the first monks who changed their names to Dionysios and Timotheos. According to legends they decided the place due to miracles that happened due to the icon and because they could not move the icon to another place.Part of the monastery was destroyed 1587 by a fire. During the Greek war of independence it was a refuge place of various heroes such as Giorgos Karaiskakis, Markos Botsaris or Lambros Katsonis. A large part of the monastery was destroyed , including many books and documents, by fire set by German troops in the second world war.
One very big monastery with watch towers all around and you have an amazing view of the canyon. The holy water is a mountain spring coming from the rocks.
