If you are in Kissos, just a few minutes from Agios Ioannis, visit the three-aisled basilica of Agia Marina in the village square with its impressive gold-plated iconostasis and its inner domes. Kissos Magnesia is a village drowned in greenery.
Everywhere there are chestnuts and plane trees covered with ivy. From here begins the hiking trail that leads to Chania Pelion. It is a beautiful picturesque, traditional mountain village located some 51 kilometers northeast of Volos.
KISSOS, PELION
According to the historian G. Kordatos, the name of the village derives from the paraphrase of the word “chrissos” [gold]. There is a tourist movement throughout the year, as it has excellent infrastructure and services in its tourist units. If you choose visiting Kissos in winter, the Ski Resort “Agriolefkes” is in a very short distance.
