Potamia – Melanes

Our Trekking route starts at Kato (Lower) Potamia village and we are heading towards Lierado area where an abandoned olive press can be seen.

We walk by the old church of Prophetes Elias and then the tower of Kokkos.

Our route goes on to Mesi (Middle) Potamia following the river and then we stop at Pano (Upper) Potamia where we visit a renovated, still operating water mill and right after the Mossena Tower where we have a coffee break.

Then we head to the Melanes Village where the unfinished statue of “Kouros” lies.

Once we have reached our destination and enjoy lunch at a traditional tavern with a great view to the old Ursulines’ summer resort.

Kinidaros – Eggares

Our Trekking route starts at the old olive press in the village of Kinidaros (550m).

We stroll down the pavement and at some point we cross the island’s largest river.

We visit the church of Agios Artemios, the old Agios Dimitrios monastery, numerous watermills and an amazing waterfall.

During the tour we can collect various species of herbs and even taste fruit in season.
