Full description

Experience the thrill of the Meteora Scramble Tour! Embark on a scrambling adventure, scaling one of the tallest rocks in Meteora!

Follow an ancient path, carefully paved on the edge of the majestic cliffs, and be mesmerized by the astonishing views amidst the towering rocks. This historic path was once traversed by the monks who inhabited the now-ruined Twelve Apostles Monastery during the Middle Ages. The Great Saint Rock itself has a fascinating history, having been a part of ancient fortifications thousands of years ago in the town below.

Prepare for an unforgettable adventure of scrambling and via ferrata climbing! Your Meteora Scramble Tour begins at the meeting point under the church of “Kimisis Theotokou.” Your expert guide will provide you with the necessary equipment and instructions on its proper usage. The journey commences with a short uphill hike through the rocks, leading to the renowned “needle rock,” where your guide will secure the ropes, initiating the exciting scramble experience. As you climb towards the top, you’ll encounter ferratas and paths carved into the rock, as well as thrilling chimney-like climbing segments. The final stop is the holy cross of Hagia, offering a spacious balcony to revel in panoramic views of the Thessalian plateau, the Pindus Mountains, and the magnificent pinnacles of Meteora!
