Visit to Greece's Premier birding paradise
4x4 excursion around Lake Kerkini
Lunch of local food and drink included
What to expect
Tucked up near the mountainous Bulgarian border lies Lake Kerikini – a vast area of marshland that's a haven for rare plants, birds and wildlife. Going where coaches can't, you'll travel by both boat and off-road vehicle to explore all the hidden corners of Greece's premier national park. And after adventures on both water and land, there's a well-earned lunch of local favourites to enjoy.It all starts in a traditional boat called a ‘plaves', to glide along the water and admire the idyllic natural scenery. Lake Kerikini is the premier birding site in Greece, so coming to a complete stop, you'll hear the sounds of over a thousand birds around you.Afterwards, well-equipped off-roaders will take you to places around the lake where you'll realise what 4X4s are needed for. Powering through mud-puddles, you'll follow no particular road as you zig-zag through the park. Back at base, a well-deserved lunch is served, washed down with a few drinks to end the day.
