A nice and easy walk, mostly on kalderimi. Time 4,5 hours, signed with signs and red marks. Starting from the main road junction at Ano Lechonia next to the train station, we climb in 2 hours to Agios Georgios at 620 m. altitude. At the square we can have a stop for a coffee or tsipouro and rest. We continue downhill towards Gatzea. Reaching the train rails, we have the opportunity to follow them to return to Ano Lechonia. This option will add approx. 1 hour of walking. Otherwise, as we did here, we continue downhill to end our walk at the picturesque beach of Kato Gatzea, where we can have lunch or coffee and even swim. Both Ano lechonia and Kato Gatzea have frequent bus service to Volos (we can also use the bus to return to Ano Lechonia).
