Set on mountain slopes, tucked away in green valleys or perched above dramatic gorges, the mountain villages of Greece are among the country's most appealing destinations. Traditional stone houses, red-tiled roofs, historic mansions and cobbled lanes give these settlements a distinctive character, while their setting amidst forests, mountain peaks and unspoilt landscapes adds to their charm.
Many traditional Greek mountain villages have preserved important elements of their local architecture and cultural heritage. Some are officially protected as traditional settlements, while others remain closely connected to the customs and traditions that have shaped life in the Greek countryside for generations. From the stone-built villages of Epirus and Macedonia to the historic settlements of the Peloponnese and Thessaly, each region has its own architectural style and local character.
Walk along their cobbled streets, admire their old houses and discover the stories behind these remarkable places. Browse our selection of the most picturesque mountain villages in Greece and find some of the country's finest destinations for a mountain getaway.
