Walking Trails
The walking trails offer a mix of coastal walks, walks past the many historical sites, walks through olive groves, explore small villages, fishing ports, churches, beaches and bays.
Nidri Waterfalls
Our walking trail to the Nidri Waterfalls starts at the port of Nidri and we follow the walking trail through olive groves, entering the forested area and following the river up to the waterfalls.
On arrival to the falls you are surrounded by steep cliffs, creating a dramatic and picturesque setting. The combination of water, rocks, and greenery creates an ideal spot for photography and memorable personal snapshots and maybe take a dip in the fresh and clear pools at the bottom of the falls.
Our way back to Nidri takes in the scenery from a different perspective, enjoying the downhill trail back along the river. This walk is a favorite for nature lovers and keen walkers.
Nikiana to Kolivata
Starting from the small port of Nikiana, the trail ascends slowly up to the village of Kolivata. This is an ancient path, known locally as 'monopati', and winds its way through ancient oak forests.
There are some amazing views from the trail over-looking the turquoise water of the Ionian Sea towards Meganisi Island.
Kolivata is known as the hidden gem of Lefkada Island and is a charming village with ancient architecture and traditional Greek atmosphere. Enjoy wondering through the narrows streets as it's like stepping back in time.
