Mount Athos
Considered one of the holiest sites in the Orthodox Christian world, the peninsula of Mount Athos is perhaps the most important cultural and religious landmark in the region. Referred to as the “Holy Mountain”, it’s a must-see location for those interested in stunning Orthodox architecture and artwork, only improved further by the outstanding natural beauty of the surrounding area. Trips to the area are considerably restricted, however, for those interested in the rich history of the region, it’s one of the most fascinating things to do in Halkidiki. -

Offering travellers the opportunity to walk in the very footsteps of history, the Aristotelian Trail stretches 50 kilometres from the famous philosopher Aristotle’s home city of Stagira to Olympiada, the village where he passed on his teachings. Take in the stunning natural beauty and rich culture of the Halkidiki peninsula as you wander through some of the most important archaeological sites in the region. Explore the ancient cities of Olynthos and Stageria as you learn about one of history’s most influential philosophers at The Aristotle Park - this trail is a treat for the mind and the senses alike. -
