Literally drenched in pines and at an altitude of 900 meters the village of Elati resembles the scenery of a fairy tale with elves and fairies. The “snow-white” of Thessaly is among the most popular destinations for nature lovers but also for skiers and snowboarders due to its close proximity to Pertouli Ski Center (8.5 km). Only 32 km will suffice to take you to this green paradise from the capital town of the county which is Trikala. 

From Ananti City Resort, the modern luxurious hotel of Trikala, visit Elati and enjoy the nature, the snow and the fabulous atmosphere of this gorgeous village.

On your way to Elati village you will come across numerous significant monasteries which you could visit, such as those of Porta Panagia and Ayios Vissarionas. Within the village, the local producers set up their little market and promote the delicacies of their land. You will find many cozy coffee shops for a hot beverage and tavernas serving top quality grilled meats. The area is appreciated for countless and enjoyable activities in nature, ranging from hiking in the lush forest to horse riding, as well as, from spending time at Pertouli Ski Center to walking and spotting old mansions and traditional marble fountain taps worthy of admiration.

The most beautiful spot in the area at large is the so-called Red Rock which is found just above Elati and offers stunning views. Its name derives from its geological color and the setting is equally and highly appreciated by the fans of climbing too. 

Also, during winter months, do not miss the ski center of Pertouli, in a lovely location among meadows and fir trees.
