The '''Pineios''' (Greek: Πηνειός) is a river in [[Thessaly]], [[Greece]].

The river is named after the god [[Peneus]] and was known for most of the 1000s as the '''Salambria'''. It flows from the [[Pindus]] mountains and empties into the [[Aegean Sea]], northeast of [[Tempe]]. The total length is 216 km and it begins in the north at the [[Pindus]] ranges east of [[Metsovo]]. The [[Meteora]] region and the cities of [[Trikala]] and [[Larisa]] lie along the Pineios. In the [[1960s]], a freeway connecting [[Athens]] and [[Thessaloniki]] was constructed in much of the Tempe valley.

==Miscellaneous==
*The battleship ''[[Pineios (battleship)|Pineios]]'' is named after the river.
*The Pineios River was the subject of a song by [[Spiros Zagoreos]] in the 1960s.
