Hotels in Central and Northern Greece, Greece

Central and Northern Greece stretch from the rugged Pindus mountains to the turquoise Aegean Sea, famous for the rock-top Meteora monasteries, ancient Delphi, and the birthplace of the gods on Mount Olympus. Summers are hot (85-95°F / 30-35°C), perfect for hiking to the Litochoro trailhead on Olympus or swimming in the crystal-clear waters of Halkidiki's three peninsulas. Winters are mild and snowy in the north, so you can ski at the Parnassus ski resort or explore Thessaloniki's 2,300-year-old Roman ruins without the summer crowds.
