If you travel by train from Thessaloniki. The trip from Larissa to Litochoro only takes 35 minutes but the train only leaves every three hours, so you have to coordinate the two legs of this journey carefully or plan on sitting around train stations for a long time. The first leg of the trip takes about 5 hours.

Getting there by car: If you choose to go by car, it makes the most sense to do it as a side trip from Thessaloniki because it is a nearly six-hour drive from Athens on the E75 and E65-part of which is a toll road and some of which is challenging.
