I spent a weekend at Makrinitsa, Pelion, last Christmas and really enjoyed the area. I am happy I chose a hotel in Makrinitsa, as it had great views to the port of Volos and the village itself was very picturesque. Have your trainers with you because paths are very stoney and may be slippery if it rains. Have your hot Greek coffee at the cafeterias in the square in the morning and then explore the other beautiful villages of the mountain. The ancient Greeks believed that Pelion was the residence of the Centars, some strange creatures half man half horse. The ski centre (in the area Agriolefkes) was very crowded and not that well organized. I wanted to try skiing but there were not enough equipment to rent :((
