All of us would like to travel in the most distant and mysterious corners of our planet. Until we actualize our dreams lets share pictures and experiences from places we have already been. Bon voyage…
Astraka Refuge November 9, 2009
The last sunny days of October were the perfect oppurtunity to enjoy the heights of Tymfi, before the snow
covers them. The conditions were ideal for walk, the clouds were minimal and only in the morning hours, and the evening breeze reminded us that in the mountain winter comes always earlier.
The renewed warm and hospitable refuge, is a perfect stop for tea or coffee. The kitchen is open all day not only for those who stay in the refuge but also for the passing trekkers. The view from the shelter is unique. Astraka, the path of Drakolimni, the fringes of Gamila, all of them can be seen from the refuge’s balcony.
The refuge is open from May through October but for more information you can visit the site http://www.astrakarefuge.com or communicate with Giorgos Rokas, who is in charge of the refuge.
Starting from the village up to the refuge you will find four springs with crystal water. The path is clearly marked with frequent labelling and constitutes ideal start for the beginners. The region is a beloved destination for many trekkers while nature’s pictures alternate by the seasons and offer unique experiences.
Kastoria’s Lake March 29, 2009
On of the most beautiful wintry landscapes is also the lake of Kastoria. Covered under the fog’s veil it gleams shyly every morning. The boats are stand rest and the only sound that can be heard are the flutter of the lake’s daily visitors that are taken off by its frozen surface.
The photos are taken by Dimitris
