Paranesti (Greek: Παρανέστι, romanized: Paranésti) is a municipality in the Rhodope Mountains of northeastern Drama regional unit, Greece. It consists of two municipal units: Paranesti and Nikoforos. The largest villages of the municipal unit Paranesti are Paranésti (the municipal seat, pop. 625), Mesochório (105), Káto Thólos (123), Χágnanto (43), and Prasináda (32).

The Natural History Museum of Paranesti is located in Paranesti.

Transport

The settlement has a railway station on the Thessaloniki–Alexandroupoli Line

Paranesti lies on the Greek National Road 14 (Drama to Xanthi). A rough unpaved (gravel and dirt) road connects Paranesti directly with the Bulgarian village of Gorna Arda and thus to the paved Bulgarian road network of Smolyan Province. The full length of the road became usable after Bulgaria's full accession to the Schengen Area in 2025 and locals have called for its improvement.

Municipality

The municipality Paranesti was formed at the 2011 local government reform by the merger of the following 2 former municipalities, that became municipal units (constituent communities in brackets):

Nikiforos (Adriani, Ano Pyxari, Nikiforos, Platania, Platanovrysi, Ptelea, Ypsili Rachi)
Paranesti (Paranesti, Sili, Tholos)

The municipality has an area of 1029.392 km, the municipal unit 788.394 km.
