Greece is one of the best destinations for thrush hunting. For years this country has been the Spanish equivalent of thrush hunting.

In the last 10 years, the country has witnessed a huge increase in birds, while Spain has faced a dizzying decline. For reasons we don’t know, the thrushes have changed their route. We decided, based on analyses from some ornithological universities, to concentrate our efforts on the Thessaly region, particularly in the cities of Lamia and Volos. It is a really beautiful area that appears located between the sky, the land, and the sea. Its economy is essentially based on the production of olives and olive oil. They produce good extra virgin olive oil from around 7 million olive trees.This land is also perfect for the wintering of millions of birds, especially thrushes, blackbirds and waders.

There are two possibilities from Italy to arrive in Thessaly, in Greece: either by plane to Athens and then to the Lamia area, or by ferry from Ancona, Bari, or Brindisi to the port of Igoumenitsa. Then take the motorway towards Thessaloniki and exit at Lamia. Hunting Adventures works with the main local hunting association and provides work following the laws of Greece.
