The Saronic Gulf is one of the most beautiful areas in Greece, and is a beautiful area for hiking all year round. Poros, but also surrounding islands such as Aegina, Hydra and Spetses and the volcanic Methana peninsula offer a great variety of natural and inviting environments for wonderful walks.

We especially invite groups, 50’s or singles, to take part in our walking activities. Of course also people in other age groups are welcome. While hiking you discover the abundantly wooded surroundings, with some walking tracks that are also good for some intensive “Nordic walking”. Don’t hesitate to contact us for more information.
