  • 5/5 Philippos Filippos S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very beautiful monastery in a special location. It's amazing the feeling you get when you get there and face it. We enjoyed the view, we learned the history of the monastery from a monk who wanted to explain it to us. Information: Better not to bother the monks unless they show you they are available. Some are there to get away from other people and get closer to god through prayer.

  • 5/5 kleanthis k. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the most beautiful historical monasteries in Greece. A journey on time with a breathtaking location. A visitor could learn a lot about medieval and modern Greek and religious history while visiting this monastery. Also, really close to Proussos village and Mavri Spilia. Highly recommended for a true travel experience.

    Great monastery in terms of history and beauty. You must definitely visit it either you are nearby or not.

  • 5/5 Panos K. 1 year ago on Google
    Magical location with stunning view. The monks are friendly and welcoming to everyone.

  • 5/5 Matina K. 1 year ago on Google
    Mesmerizing monastery with a breathtaking mountainous view. It is quite strenuous to access the monastery due to the many road bends, however, when getting there you won't regret it.

  • 5/5 Invest In G. 2 years ago on Google
    It is a definitely a place to visit white in the area. Not recommended when raining or snowing. The clock tower opposite to the Monastery is a unique and the view from the top is awesome

  • 3/5 Personal H. 1 year ago on Google
    This is literaly a relic of Eastern Orthodoxy, and monastries go, a very impressive one. Nested amongst peaks, it is picaresque but it's let down by the challenging drive to the monastry, lots of blind corners and too many 'fast and furious' drivers. Perhaps more importantly, though, access to the public is limited to a short strip of the monastry, so if you're up for anything more than a 5 min you might be disappointed. As far as I'm concernes surely a landmark for religion, but not a top tourist destination...

    Worth seeing it no matter your religion if you have any. The view is astonishing and there are many walking paths with amazing waterfalls and wild nature.

  • 5/5 D P. 1 year ago on Google
    A monastery with a very old history worth visiting

  • 5/5 Dimitrios Z. 8 months ago on Google
    Ein sehr schönes Kloster das inmitten den Bergen, sehr schöne Landschaft. Historisch ist auch die Umgebung wo einst der Freiheitskämpfer Karaiskakis gekämpft hat!

  • 5/5 Evi M. 8 months ago on Google
    If you can stomach the continuous turns on the way, the scenery and final destination will reward you. One of the most beautiful monasteries and church built inside a rock, has significant historic and religious value. Despite the high volume of pilgrims it was very organized with all facilities clean.

    This thousand year old monastery is an awesome sight. A major pilgrimage for Greeks, it is nestled atop a steep ravine, an aerie seeking the majesty of Heaven. You'll be overwhelmed

  • 1/5 Nikos G. 9 months ago on Google
    Today I called the people of this Holy place to arrange a night of stay in the monastery. I could easily stay in a hotel and this is not the matter... The sensation of staying in a divine place was that I was looking for. I was so wrong... A non kind guy replied to my call and also told me that there is no place for my small dog in their place. So sorry for the experience I had and thank you for blocking my way towards you. I had a completely wrong idea about you. There is no scenario I can control on earth that can separate me from my loyal friend. May God spare you enlightment. Jesus was just right again.

👍👍 The waterfall of the Black Cave is located between Prousos and Tornos. The waterfall is located on a wonderful hiking trail between trees and steep mountains. It is a small small waterfall whose waters form a natural pond with crystal clear and icy waters, which if you are adventurous you can dive....

👍 Οι οδηγίες στους χάρτες της Google σίγουρα θα σε μπερδέψουν! Κοίτα πως θα πας λοιπόν: ο ένας τρόπος είναι με κατεύθυνση από τη μονή Προυσού προς το Καρπενήσι, στα 9 χιλιόμετρα από τη μονή ,έχει μια πινακίδα. Εκεί κατεβαίνεις δεξιά και βρίσκεις μια εκκλησία του Αγίου Γεωργίου στην αρχή. Αν θες παρκάρ...
