Πίστα Καρτ Βόλος- Go-Kart Track Volos

In Sesklo, near Volos in Thessaly, the Volos karting track lays out an open-air layout at the ninth kilometre of the road linking Volos to Larissa. The fleet mixes karts of one hundred and forty and two hundred and seventy cubic centimetres, and children can drive from the age of six. A café and instructors on site support the drivers, from beginners to the more experienced.

People come with family or friends for a few heats, with sessions of five or ten minutes and regular offers, such as an extended slot on Wednesdays. The circuit also hosts corporate events, birthday parties and road-safety days for young people. It is an easy-going sporting outing, a few minutes from Volos.

Volos is a great port of Thessaly, set at the head of the Pagasetic Gulf at the foot of Mount Pelion, the mountain of the centaurs of mythology, known for its villages and beaches. Sesklo, close by, is home to one of the oldest Neolithic sites in Europe. The Volos track adds a dose of open-air motorsport, welcome for an active outing between the sea and the mountain. The wide choice of engine sizes, from one hundred and forty to two hundred and seventy cubic centimetres, lets everyone find their pace, from the careful parent to the thrill-seeking teenager, and the regular offers make it an affordable outing for the whole family. A few minutes from the centre of Volos and the gulf's beaches, the track fits easily into a day exploring the region.
