The RiverBed guesthouse is a traditional two-story building dating back to 1913, which has been carefully restored with great attention to detail and respect for its original form. The building's authentic features, such as the stone walls, the staircase, and the wooden beams, have been preserved — while all modern comforts have been added, combining the traditional with the contemporary. Every space in the guesthouse has been thoughtfully designed to provide maximum comfort and tranquility to the visitor. On the ground floor, there is a shared lounge and courtyard, and the rooms are located on the upper floor. Finally, the building’s exterior has been captured by the photographic lens of Frédéric Boissonnas, highlighting its historic character.
Litochoro is a unique place because it combines both mountain and sea. The mountain, Mount Olympus, is world-renowned for its mythological history. It is also the highest mountain in Greece, with an elevation close to 3,000 meters. Litochoro is considered the "gateway" to Olympus, as many trails start from here, including the classic E4 trail that leads to the mountain's peaks.
The sea is just seven kilometers away from Litochoro, making it the ideal choice for a refreshing swim, especially during the warm summer months. Overall, Litochoro and the wider Pieria region are perfect destinations for every season of the year. The unique combination of mountain and sea offers countless opportunities for relaxation as well as outdoor activities. It is a place suitable for every visitor: ideal for families seeking peaceful and safe vacations, for athletes and nature lovers wanting to explore the trails of Mount Olympus, and also for young people looking for experiences of adventure, exploration, and alternative tourism. With modern infrastructure, traditional character, and easy access, Litochoro is the ideal destination for those seeking a connection with nature and authentic experiences.
