Overview

Experience an unforgettable full-day adventure in Loutraki, where ancient history meets stunning coastal nature!

Starting from the beautiful Lake Vouliagmeni, we’ll hike along scenic coastal trails overlooking the Corinthian Gulf. Along the way, you’ll visit the iconic Melagavi Lighthouse and explore the ancient site of Heraion — the sacred sanctuary of goddess Hera by the sea. There will be time to relax and swim in the crystal-clear waters of a secluded beach.

Our route continues to the small chapel of Saint Nicholas, perched on the cliffs with panoramic views over the gulf. From here, we complete our circular route, returning to Lake Vouliagmeni for a delicious lakeside lunch, before returning to Athens. 

A perfect blend of history, sea views, nature, and authentic Greek flavors!
