Florina is a town and municipality in mountainous northwestern Macedonia, Greece. Its motto is, ‘Where Greece begins’, but it is also where winter begins in Greece. Enjoy the Florina nights in white satin!

February

February is for skiing, and Mount Parnassos is a nice surprise for those who think that Greece is just about sun, sea and extreme heat! Just 2 hours away from Athens, the resort is great for a weekend trip.

March

Nafplion is one of the most beautiful and romantic towns in the area of Argolis and the first capital of the newly born Greek state between 1823 and 1834. Bearing in mind that March 25 is the Greek Day of Independence and the importance of this town during the struggle for independence, March would be ideal for a trek to Nafplion.
