The "Balcony of Pelion", 17 km. from Volos. An elusive figure but, because when visitors to the city looking towards the mountain, the horizon opens up and embraces the look of the Makrinitsa perched on the steep mountainside to stand Viglatoras sleepless over the city.

The visit is inevitable, and inevitably the reward excellent, only, unique. Half hours drive and a delightful stroll through the narrow pedestrian street will bring the visitor to the central square where the wait for a panoramic view of Volos naplonetai feet in depth 600 measures, and, beyond the dazzling whiteness of the beautiful city of Jason, the waters seem to Pagasitikos when silver and gold as when a huge mirror in the arms of the frame of Pelion. If someone was planning a tour of the world 80 days, certainly would include the site visit as Makrynitsa.
