Northern Greece includes all or parts of four officially recognized regions of the country: Central Macedconia, Eastern Macedonia, Epirus, Thessaly, and Thrace. The region is primarily mountainous, covered by various ranges of the Balkan mountains which also cover much of the neighboring countries to the north . In addition to being home to spectacular snow covered mountain peaks, the region also hosts some of the great cultural treasures of Greece, ranging from ancient ruins dating to the Antiquity to the famous Eastern Orthodoxy monasteries of Meteora and Athos. Here are the best drone videos from this mountainous land near the southern tip of the Balkan Peninsula.

As seen on a map, the Greek region of Chalkidiki resembles a three fingered hand where the "palm" is an oval shaped peninsula south of the city of Thessaloniki and the "fingers" are three narrow peninsulas pointing to the southeast. The bays between these peninsulas have semi-protected and numerous small islands, which makes for a sort of stand-up paddleboard heaven. You can check out this fantastic SUP scene from above in this awesome drone video by top contributor and drone pilot Uncle Damn.
