KD1 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I wonder can anybody supply me with a list of LPG outlets in Greece, especially the Peloponese. I know that it is rare to find them, but any advice on places that supply the LPG would be great, as I have just booked the Ferry from Ancona at the end of August for 9 weeks. Cheers.

Don Madge Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Hi, If you are planning to visit Athens this site is ideal for visiting all the cities attractions. The bus stop is close to the site entrance. It is also very convenient for Piraeus Port, 4 miles. Camping Athens GPS co-ords N38.008590 E23.671996 Large garden type site with the entrance off an 8 lane dual carriageway. There is some road noise during the day but is reasonably quiet at night. Only a very small part of the site was in use, there were six units during our short (19/20 March) visit. The English speaking staffs were very helpful. COST. Camper, two persons and electricity. Up to 31/03/2010 €28 per night After 31/03/2010 €29 per night. There are no discounts available, they do except the plastic though. This includes wifi with the best signal close to the office. SITE FACILITIES. Toilets very good, showers adequate, all very clean. Could be stretched in high season. Shop and restaurant open in the high season. There are no washing machines available. LOCAL AMENITIES. There are two supermarkets and an ATM within walking distance of the site. ATM. Turn left out of gate, Euro bank ATM on left in 10 minutes Small supermarket, turn left out of gate s/m on left 5 minute walk. Large AB Supermarket, turn right out of gate s/m on right, 15 minute walk. LPG. LPG is available within 2 miles GPS co-ords N37.99304 E23.69742 The BP filling station looks like a scrap yard. As you enter the site the LPG pump is directly in front of you. We paid €0.69 per litre. While we were waiting our turn they refilled a large camping gas bottle and a local 13 kg bottle. They had a set of adapters that would fit most bottles including calor gas bottles. OBSERVATIONS. When you drive out of the site you must turn right, within 200 metres there is a set of traffic lights where you can do a u turn. We have been in Greece now for five days and I've noticed that many filling stations do not now except credit cards.

Curly Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I agree with Don for the Athens info. I also used the Athens BP gas station, we were there last September/October. You will not find any LPG filling stations in the Pelopanese, all are in the North of Greece, they are about but you have to search for them, sorry no locations as we only needed to top up our supply. We met some campers who were adamant that you cannot refill in Greece- rubbish, we have Gaslow and as Don says they have all the European connections.

Curly Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I am in a rush and forgot to mention a site to see, and there are many, but the number one that is amazing and that is METEORA it is a must see, you will never forget it. 8-) 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Madge Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 There is LPG on the Peloponnese at GR-22100 Tripoli there might also be some at Kalamata. In the large cities/towns the taxis sometimes run on LPG so it's worth asking a taxi driver for info. Safe travelling. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also IMHO a must see in Northern Greece is the Vikos Gorge, especially for Walkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
