It is located in the southern part of the #Pindos #mountain range, at a distance of 31 kilometers from the #city of Trikala.
The distance between Elati and #Athens is 360 km and the #journey by #car takes about three and a half hours.
Accordingly, the distance between Elati and #Thessaloniki is 247 km and you will need about three hours to get there.
From Trikala it takes about 40 minutes to go up to the village.
Elati is built amphitheatrically, in a forest of #fir trees, at a height of 921 meters on Mount #Koziakas.
The village is only 15 kilometers from #Pertouli and the #ski #center of the same name.
The beautiful #natural #landscape, the unforgettable view, the mountain #climate, the proximity to the ski resort, the neat #guesthouses and the good #food, have contributed to the great #tourist #development and #visitors growth that Elati has experienced in recent years throughout the year.
It is a starting point for many #excursions on #forest #paths, which is why it is a favorite destination for nature #lovers.
High up, opposite the central #square of the village among the fir trees, the red #limestone #rock dominates.
It can be reached by a #passable path in 15 minutes time, and from its top the view of the village is panoramic. There is an organized #climbing area here.
It is the largest village of mountainous Trikala and is undoubtedly the most #cosmopolitan of the prefecture.
According to #tradition, Elati was inhabited a few years after the fall of #Constantinople in 1453.
After all, this is also evidenced by the various #Byzantine findings.
The stone houses of old #Tyrna were built by #Epirotian #craftsmen, with their characteristic lintels.
The current location of the village is new. The village before 1943 was further west and towards the river. That year it was burned by the #German Nazis.
