Birding in Central Greece
Mount Parnassos, the slopes around Delphi and the wetlands of the Sperchios valley.
Best season: April to June
Mount Parnassos rises above Delphi with fir forest and high meadows holding mountain birds such as Rock Partridge and Alpine Chough. The olive groves below Delphi are good for warblers and buntings.
To the north, the Sperchios valley and delta add wetland species, making Central Greece a varied stop between Athens and the north.
