Mouresi
(59 Km from Volos via Tsagarada, alt. 420 m)

Mouresi is found on the main road three kilometers north of Tsagarada. It is a widely spread village built on the lush north slope of a long ridge rising steep above the Kissos Stream. From this position it has an unimpeded view toward the villages of Kissos, Agios Dimitrios and Agios Ioannis and of course over the Aegean Sea.

At the foot of the slope is Damouhari, a heavenly little hamlet, Mouresi’s pride and prize and formerly northeastern Pelion’s natural port, where ships would bring their trade. Damouhari today consists of two lovely inlets separated by a narrow little cape on which still stand the ruins of a medieval castle. The little bay on the left still is a lovely little port where fishing boats will lazy about rocking softly on the wave, while its twin is now a quite attractive pebbly beach. Amongst the olive trees that abound there one will find quite a few quaint old houses mingling with new ones, great tavernas and a captivating atmosphere reminiscent of life in the olden days. From Damouhari, a short walk over a low ridge will bring the visitor to Papa Nero, a wonderful sandy beach, beyond which is the beach of Agios Ioannis.

The Mouresi flag-stoned square is at the heart of the village and has great vistas over the mountain and the sea. It is shaded by three giant linden trees under which stands the most impressive metropolitan temple of Agia Triada [Holy Trinity].

Mouresi has adequate accommodation for visitors and vacationers in pensions and rooms and houses in both traditional and new buildings, warm hospitality and good service, very good tavernas that serve delicious local food and spirits, and, for the horticulture buff, several greenhouses where he will find a floral paradise to decorate his home with.
