Climb to Olympus summit

**A half day hike in Kardamyli of western Mani.**

Land of stone and light, villages perched on the outskirts of mount Taygetos with tower houses and countless chapels. Settlements bordering with the sea, steep canyons and caves and beaches entangled with olive groves. The charm of Mani is these contrasts. Here, every stone has its own history. Here, the magnificence of the mountainous nature is harmoniously combined with the allure of the sea as mount Taygetos is so close from the embrace of the Mediterranean.

Starting our hike from the fort of old Kardamyli we follow the trail of the ancient so called ‘’royal street’’ connecting Kardamyli with Sparta during ancient years. We walk on a pathway immersed in olive trees, pines and cypress trees. We visit some of the traditional villages of the region, we walk through their narrow streets and alleys learning about their history. Byzantine churches, stone-built watchtowers, old fountains, olive and grain mills reveal the life of locals in the past. A blast of colors and aromas from wildflowers and herbs overwhelm us and bring us even closer to the natural environment. Just a breath away, mount Taygetos with its imposing peaks. A small break for a healthy picnic with traditional local delicacies gives us additional energy.

Hiking - Melania Route

## Description
 
If it’s wild and wonderful you want, then this route has it in abundance. Starting from the beautiful village of Lagada and ending to the small church of Stavros, hidden high up in the ridges nearby Krikelos (or Kroukelos) mountain. It is full of natural beauty, upon walking along the impressive cliffs, enjoy the exceptional sea view. We are going to pass by the monastery of **Agios Ioannis Theologos**, and walk across the ‘invisible’ part of the island. This is the path that the shepherds once used to take for reaching their fields up in the mountains.

We begin early in the morning in order to avoid the heat of the sun. **Lagada** is our starting point, the village opposite to ours, Tholaria, at an altitude of 225m. Admire the unique Cycladic architecture and byzantine churches in one of the oldest villages of the island.

Path No 5 passes above the small settlement of **Stroumbos** – ‘the village with 12 houses and 13 stone ovens’, with no electricity and running water. The trail is strewn with prickly pears, cactuses and ficus. After an ascent of 30’, Agios Ioannis Theologos monastery appears in front of you at an altitude of 515m. It used to be metochi (having a status of dependency) of the Hozoviotissa Monastery. It has been recently renovated and there are distinctive characteristics of byzantine architecture. Inside the apse there is a mosaic cross, an indication that it was probably built during the iconoclasm period. Listen to the silence of this place, it has so much to say.

Passing through steep and uneven terrain, explore rocky cliffs and scenic highlights that you won’t soon forget before reaching **Stavros** church. Here, the out-of-this-world view will definitely take your breath away.

Run and hike in Thessaloniki - Platanakia Trail

**A half day crossing at the gorge of the female river of Neda**

Neda is a river of the western Peloponnese. Stems from mount Lykaion, flows westward and empties into the Ionian Sea. The river was named after the nymph Neda who was a goddess of the waters. Near the banks of the river is the ancient town of Phiigalia and the temple of Epicureus Apollo. The river over a large part of it crosses a ravine with very rich vegetation. Along its course, numerous waterfalls are created. The largest is near Figalleia and has a height of about 25 meters. Neda is a well-kept secret river of Greece, still a hidden gem! A perfect choice for river trekking.

Our river trek starts at the Figalia bridge near the village Platania where you meet your guide. After a briefing we start our trek. Though there is not a real track we aim to walk through or along the river. We may have to hop on rocks, jump on the river bank, figure out for the best way. Walking in the water is unavoidable, while in other parts swimming is absolutely necessary. Along the river course there is rich vegetation with plane trees. Waterfalls appear suddenly in front of our eyes and in parts the river narrows and is surrounded by steep rocks. After 4 hours of walking & swimming, we reach the main majestic waterfall of 25 m creating a large pond with crystal clear turquoise waters. We shall swim in the pediment of the great waterfall and the more daring will descend by a rope until the opening of the Stomion cave. Before ending our trek, we shall make a relaxing stop to taste a homemade picnic of fresh local delicacies.

**A half day hike at the longest gorge of mount Taygetos**

Just 10km away from Kalamata, yet so close to the core of Taygetos massif lies Ridomo gorge. A geological phenomenon with interesting limestone formations, created by the effect of water rushing down from the mountains. The gorge starts from the peaks of mount Taygetos all the way down to the beach of Santova just outside of Kalamata. At a certain point it becomes two meters narrow and 60 meters high. Walking through this part is a great experience.

Our hike starts from the rim near the village Vorio. We follow the path leading down to the rocky bottom. Walking the gorge uphill is a bit challenging as we scramble the huge boulders but very much rewarding as the views around us are truly magnificent. We make a few stops to rest enjoy a healthy picnic and admire the unique geological formations. We may spot some wild goats skillfully balancing on the almost vertical cliffs. Small waterfalls dripping down from high above, and partly those walls are decorated by evergreen ivy plants. After around 5 kilometers the rockiest part is over and the gorge gets narrower. Soon we shall find yourselves into a narrow corridor between vertical walls, listening the echo of our steps and almost able to touch both walls at the same time. This is the most impressive part of Ridomo Gorge.

**A half day downhill hike in Biliovo Trail**

Biliovo is considered as one of the most well-preserved traditional cobblestone paths of Greece, unique in its kind, it is classified as a folk architectural monument. It was created by local artisans in the early 20th century in an effort lasted 25 years! It has been a vital boost for the local social and economic growth since it linked the higher with the lower villages of western Mani.

Our hike starts from the village of Altomira on the outskirts of the southwestern Taygetos. While descending on its curly way of 75 turns, images from the past unfold when locals were passing through the path carrying water and goods from their fields to their houses with the help of patient mules. The natural environment around in and the elevation since in some parts the cobble path has been built on 70% slope, offer awesome views. While walking through the old path our gaze extends to all over Messinia lapped by the blue Mediterranean. From the villages of Mani and the city of Kalamata to Koroni and Cape Akritas. Midway we stop to rest and taste a homemade picnic of local delicacies and fresh fruits enjoying stunning views.

Hiking Biliovo trail

## Description
 
**Palia Strata**, as the name itself says (old walk in Greek), follows ancient route once used for communication and trading purposes. Most of its length coincides with the ancient road which connected Minoa with Aegiali.

Walk through this ancient path setting off from Aegiali bay and ending to the renowned Monastery of Panagia Hozoviotissa. Join us in a hike, led by our expert guides through some important cultural and historical attractions while walking up to the cliffs and gazing the breath-taking view over the sea on the way!

The “old road” of Amorgos is the most popular long-distance route to savour and is passing through the crest of a mountain at an altitude of 350-400 meters, on a coastal path.
 
We are departing from **Potamos**, a village above Aegiali port. Step back in time: **Asfondilitis** is an abandoned rural settlement with houses of dry-stone walls. Followingly, explore **Kapsala** place, the area where monks used to live in natural caves.
