Top 3 Things to Do in Metsovo this Winter
Metsovo combines culture, gastronomy, and adventure effortlessly. Here is what you shouldn’t miss:
1. Indulge in World-Class Gastronomy
You cannot visit Metsovo without tasting Metsovone, the region’s famous smoked cheese. Pair it with a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon from the Katogi Averoff Winery. We highly recommend booking a cellar tour to see where some of Greece’s most celebrated wines are aged.
2. Skiing at Anilio Adventure Park
Located just minutes from the village, Anilio Adventure Park is a paradise for snow lovers. At an altitude of 1,850 meters, it offers skiing, snowboarding, and unmatched views of the snowy peaks. It is a family-friendly spot that is perfect for both beginners and pros.
3. Explore Traditional Culture
Walk the cobblestone streets to the Tositsa Baron Museum of Folk Art, a perfectly preserved mansion that showcases the rich history of the Vlach culture. The architecture alone creates a fairytale backdrop perfect for your winter photography.
