    As a matter of fact. Greece has together with Italy the most Ultra prominence peaks in Europe. Switzerland has 8 Ultra peaks, Austria 12, Greece 19, and Italy 20. 80% of Greece is mountainous. So Greece is a perfect winter destination, or any kind of destination. It has practically everything, from Alpine mountains all the way to the only natural palmforests in Europe and everything inbetween. It even has one small desert on Limnos, and volcano's, many other-worldly geological formations and one of the most natural hotsprings om the planet with 800 natural hotsprings. And if you look at what Greece has in relation to it's size, then Greece is absolutely incredibly diverse.

      @@AVenlledBraZil In some things yes and some big couple of things not. Spain is far less mountainous than Greece. Spain has only 4 ultra peak mountains in all of Spain mainland. And 4 on the islands. Greece has 19 Ultra peak mountains. Greece is smaller than Spain, but very spread out. From north till south is in total length about the same as Spain. But Greece has 19 Ultra peak mountains, Spain 8.
      Spain size is 505.000 and Greece 132.000. Meaning Greece has 2.8x more Ultra peak mountains as a whole, but Since Spain is 3.8 times larger in total surface area, *Greece therefor has 9 times higher density of Ultra peak mountains than Spain.* Spain has only a mountain chain at the border with France (Pyrenees), and a few mountains inside the inland of Spain and then 1 mountain close to Malaga. The rest is only hills, light hills or flat.
      But with things like volcano's, desert, and some other elements Spain has similarities with Greece in their own way.
      Also. Go to google earth and check both countries out. Greece's topography and geography is much more extreme and diverse than that of Spain
