The mountainous village of Zagora, located 47km from the city of Volos, is the largest of all villages around Pelion, and is probably also in the best location of Pelion, offering inspiring views over Pelion and the Aegean Sea.

Zagora was also one of the most important villages in Pelion in terms of wealth and trade.

The silk industry was one of the main occupations of the villagers, and with sea trade possible from the nearby port of Horefto, the village was able to grow both financially and trade-wise.

Today however, the main production from the village is it's famous apples and pears, which can be found in stores and markets all over Greece.

With the famous ski centre of Agriolefkes on Mount Pelion, and the numerous beautiful beaches, Pelion is an inspiration to us all, every day of the year. Whenever you decide to take your holiday here, you can be sure of unforgetable moments.

In Zagora, there are many interesting things to see, which offer a fantastic insight into the history of our village. One such place to visit is the old school of "Rigas", which is known as the oldest school in Pelion.
