Chorefto is located in a distance of 55km from Volos, just 9km from Zagora, being its port. The boats of the inhabitants of Zagora were anchored here when the weather permitted it, to take on and off various products. During the Turkish occupation, the sloping, but convenient, road of nowadays did not exist, but a narrow path (which survives until today), and the transportation of goods was made with mules. In 1963, a diesel engine power was installed in Chorefto, which supplied power in Zagora. In 1941, the merchant from Zagora Dimitrios Polimeris, with a significant fortune in the USA, took the initiative of constructing on his own expense the road that exists until today in the area. He contributed also in the building of the middle and high school of Zagora, in the financial support of the hospital of the area and he left many legacies. You will see the bust created in his honour at the central road of Zagora, at the junction with Chorefto.
