Meteora is a group of huge rock pillars of sandstone and conglomerate rising above the town of Kalambaka and the village of Kastraki in Thessaly. They were shaped over millions of years by water, wind and frost, and the name means \u201csuspended in the air\u201d. Hermits lived in caves in the rock from about the 11th century, and in the 14th century the monk Athanasios from Mount Athos founded the Great Meteoron, the first of the large monasteries on the summits. At their peak in the 16th century there were 24 monasteries, and Meteora has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1988.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kalambaka is about 350 km from Athens, a drive of four to five hours. Since the storms of 2023 there has been no direct train to Kalambaka, and the last section from Palaiofarsalos has been run by bus, so check the current Hellenic Train connection; KTEL buses from Athens go via Trikala. The monasteries are 5\u201310 km above Kalambaka, about 15 minutes by car or taxi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
