Its west side is looking inside the the bay, while Eastern part is facing to Halkidiki and is washed by crystal-clear waters of the Aegean Sea. Since ancient times, the history of this region is closely intertwined with the mythology of bewildered paths once walked by the centaurs (mythical half people half horses), the coolness, the abundance of springs and small waterfalls enjoyed the gods of Olympus, which was the summer residence of Pelion.
Today Pelion is occupied by tourists during all the year: in winter they are skiing and in summer they are engaged in rafting, horseback riding, biking and hiking, at sea - sailing, diving and go in search of sea adventures to nearby islands Sporades (Skopelos , Alonissos and Skiathos). 


There is another interesting way to explore the pristine wilderness Pelion: a small train ride on the "Jason" (yes, and the leader of the Argonauts also left his mark on history of this region). The railroad was built in XIX century. And only it has been linking the Eastern Pelion with the city of Volos, the capital of Magnesia region for decades. This is where the Argonauts set sail for the Golden Fleece from. But now it is used solely for tourism purposes: driving through the ancient stone arch bridge and admiring the magnificent scenery...
