We had already seen the main monasteries, but this tour showed us the real Meteora. Quiet trails, amazing views and spots we would never have found on our own. Everything was well organized and felt authentic and local.

Meeting point
Meet at the Meteora Off-Road Adventures base in Kastraki
Check in at the base, meet your guide, get your helmet and a short safety briefing and learn how to operate your electric UTV and the smart audio guide system.
Follow the main asphalt road around the 6 active monasteries of Meteora. Enjoy photo stops at key viewpoints to see them all and visit inside the Holy Trinity monastery, dramatically perched on its isolated rock.
Continue to Vlachava village, a natural balcony over the valley. From here, leave the main road and turn onto dirt tracks towards the hidden cave monastery.
Drive your electric UTV along forest roads and park for a short walk to Palaiopanagia, a 14th-century monastery carved into the rock cavity. Explore the cave-like spaces and enjoy the tranquility of the oak forest around you.
Return to your buggy and head down to the Psyras stone arch bridge on the Ionas river – a beautiful, historic stone structure hidden among trees and water.
Complete the off-road circle through the oak tree forest and the surreal “stone forest” rock formations inside the Meteora UNESCO Geopark, before heading back to the base.
Discover Meteora in a new, eco-friendly way with a midday PURE ELECTRIC CFMOTO UFORCE U6 EV. Start at 13:00 on the classic asphalt road around the 6 active monasteries, including a visit inside Holy Trinity. Then leave the pavement behind and switch to dirt roads from Vlachava to the hidden Palaiopanagia cave monastery, the Psyras stone arch bridge and oak & “stone forest” trails in the UNESCO Geopark, enjoying a silent drive with smart audio guide in 10 languages.
This midday electric buggy adventure is the perfect mix of classic Meteora views and hidden off-road secrets. Starting at 13:00, it’s ideal if you don’t want an early start but still want to see the best of the monasteries and the Geopark in one compact tour.
You begin by following the main road that winds around the 6 active monasteries. From the comfort of your PURE ELECTRIC CFMOTO UFORCE U6 EV, you’ll enjoy several photo stops to admire the monasteries from different angles and visit inside Holy Trinity, one of the most spectacular clifftop monasteries in Meteora.
From there, the tour changes character. At Vlachava village you leave the asphalt and enter the off-road side of the UNESCO Geopark. Your guide leads you along dirt tracks into an oak forest, towards the hidden cave monastery of Palaiopanagia, a 14th-century rock-cut monastery carved into an impressive natural cavity. A short walk lets you step inside and feel the atmosphere of this secluded spiritual retreat.
The adventure continues to the stone arch bridge of Psyras on the Ionas river, a beautiful example of traditional stone craftsmanship hidden in nature. You’ll have time to walk around, listen to the water and capture photos before getting back into your buggy.
The final part of the tour completes an off-road loop through oak forest and the “stone forest”, a landscape of scattered rock formations and forest tracks that only local guides know. Here, the fact that your vehicle is fully electric makes all the difference.
Enjoy the Silent Drive Through the Forest
Driving a PURE ELECTRIC UTV – CFMOTO UFORCE U6 EV in nature is a completely different feeling from a classic petrol off-road vehicle:
On top of that, each vehicle is equipped with a smart audio guide and infotainment system, with speakers above the seats. As you drive, the system reveals 20+ points of interest in 10 languages, covering the geology, history, monastic life and legends of Meteora. You’re not just looking at the landscape – you’re understanding it, in your own language, without having to stare at your phone.
You can also choose an optional lunch stop in Vlachava village, to enjoy local food and views before or after the off-road section, depending on the day’s schedule.
This tour is perfect if you want a balanced, eco-friendly experience: half classic monastery road, half off-road adventure, all in silent electric comfort.

A Unique Experience Beyond the Monasteries
We had already seen the main monasteries, but this tour showed us the real Meteora. Quiet trails, amazing views and spots we would never have found on our own. Everything was well organized and felt authentic and local.

Adventure, Nature & History in One Tour
Perfect balance of excitement and scenery. The off-road driving was fun but relaxed, and the places we visited were incredible—especially the cave monastery and the stone bridge. Small group, no crowds, and plenty of time for photos. Highly recommended.

An Unforgettable Way to See Meteora
This was hands down the highlight of our trip. Driving off-road through forests and hidden paths, stopping at viewpoints and quiet monasteries, felt like discovering a completely different side of Meteora. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and made us feel completely safe the whole time.
