About this activity

Central Macedonia is dominated by the majestic Lake Kerkini, an artificial wetland created by human intervention. For the visitor, the gastronomy, the wine surprises, but also the boating, are unprecedented experiences.

The lake is among the 10 wetlands of international importance in Greece and, having been declared a National Park, stands out, among other things, for its rich flora and fauna. So far, at least 1300 species of plants have been recorded in the National Park, some of which are rare or endemic, and 300 species of birds have been observed.

-Short description:

Sunday getaway in Kerkini. It’s a nice opportunity to relive the carefree Sundays of our childhood together and enjoy moments in the open air again. A different wine tasting cruise. In collaboration with Nikos and Konstantina, we designed a different tour with the aim of guiding you around the area with the authentic perspective of the people who love their place, cultivate it, protect it and share it. An opportunity to get to know the organic techniques applied in the vineyards. First we will learn some things about the biodiversity of the natural environment of the lake which together make up a unique ecosystem. Then we will try two labels and Konstantina will explain to us the varieties and the production method of each one. The labels are accompanied by a platter of cheeses and charcuterie.
