Seich Sou Forest Hike

Thessaloniki's own backyard forest, Seich Sou, rises straight behind the upper town and offers easy trails with sweeping views over the city and the Thermaic Gulf. Guided walks and self-guided routes wind past streams and shaded clearings, with longer loops reaching panoramas that stretch all the way to Mount Olympus on clear days. It is the simplest escape into nature without leaving the city limits.
