Helicopter Flights from/to Meteora

Situated over the town of Kalampaka in Central Greece, Meteora is one of the most imposing sights in Greece and a must-see for everyone visiting the country. Sandstone rocks, 400 meters high, formed about 60 million years ago, compose this rare natural phenomenon and landscape.

Besides being a natural miracle, what makes Meteora even more striking are the spectacularly perched atop the rocky cliffs monasteries. Their name, which means “suspended in the air”, describes perfectly these six remarkable Greek Orthodox monasteries. In 1988 Meteora was announced a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of the largest monastic and pilgrimage areas in Greece, second only to Mount Athos.  You can see for yourself how the tradition of Greek Orthodoxy is preserved uninterrupted for over 600 years in this place where timelessness and serenity prevail. Here you can feel the quietness and tranquility of the monastic life, the traditional way of living, admire the unique architecture of the monasteries and the amazing natural setting.
