Shelters in the mountains of Kouroutes

Shelters in the mountains of Kouroutes
Old stone shelters, scattered in the mountains of Kouroutes, as in other areas of Psiloritis, are built. They served as cheese-making areas, but also as seasonal lodgings for shepherds in earlier years. The “twin” shelters, built side by side with dry stones without binding material and a vaulted roof, are perfectly in harmony with the natural environment and impress the visitor with their simple architecture, reminiscent of the Minoan vaulted tombs.
