  • 2. Pelion Railway

    Industrial development in the region during the late 19th century necessitated the building of a railroad linking Volos to the picturesque Milies, 27 km (17 miles) east. Destroyed by retreating German troops and subsequent earthquakes, only the second half of the line remains open to tourists, connecting Ano Lechonia with the latter. The train itself, an old-school steam locomotive nicknamed "Moutzouris" ("smudgy," in English) chugs along at a tepid 19 km (12 miles) per hour, which is the right speed for taking in the stupendous views of Pagasitikos Bay. Trips normally take 1½ hours each way and stop for 15 minutes in Ano Gazea.
