We rented a motobike in Paralia and climbed the big Olymp Mountain, we wanted to visit the gods of olymp, but they weren't at home.:D

Anyway, it was a great trip and got a very special feeling if you think about it. One day you are sitting in the office trying to fix never ending errors and the next day you are hiking the home of the Greek gods with a motorbike. Unbelievable, right?

Kavala Sights

 Travel to the quaint village of Orfani where another historical Byzantine castle is preserved in all its splendor.

The traditional buildings scattered all over this majestic headland are triumphs in Macedonian architecture. Picturesque sceneries of the city’s seascape and the verdant gardens that litter the Panagia make the ascent towards the apex a stroll of a lifetime.... Read more »
