Four seasons

In winter there’s no sensation of cold, as the village is situated at the bottom of Olympus mountain range and is protected from freezing winter winds. In winter the landscape of Setrachos riverbed, with its water gurgling, tall elms, leafless plane trees and alder trees acquires mysterious appearance. Rarely white snow falls to decorate the nature, then the fruit tree in the orchards, the church bell-towers, roofs and chimneys of the houses with wooden balconies remind scenes taken from the Christmas fairytales.
