Hiking and walking around the hills of Corfu

It combines an outing to the rich nature of the island with an introduction to the history, culture, art, and rural architecture of the past. The excursion begins and terminates from/to our premises in Dassia or from/to a pre-arranged meeting point from where the group will be transported by minivan.

The itinerary involves approximately six kilometers of hiking inside a forest with typical Ionian flora species, a visit to the traditional village of Sokraki, and a 2-3 km relaxing descending from a provincial road with views of Corfu land and sea from above that remain unforgettable. Anyone with a rather good fitness level can participate, as the group will follow pre-chartered paths. Due to the moderate difficulty of the excursion, seniors, teenagers or persons with manageable disabilities may participate, considering that they have some physical strength and are used to taking long walks in nature.
