Overview

Step beyond the beaches and discover the authentic heart of Lefkada on a scenic guided hike through the historic mountain village of Karya. This relaxed cultural walking experience blends nature, history, and local traditions.

We begin at the Karya Folk Art Museum, where beautiful embroidery and traditional crafts reveal Lefkada’s rich heritage. Following quiet mountain paths, we share stories of village life, local customs, flora, and fauna.

Our trail leads to the abandoned village of Rekatsinata, a hidden gem where time seems frozen among old stone houses.

Back in Karya, we visit the Apollonas Museum of Local Music & Dance to discover the rhythms and traditions of Lefkadian culture.

We finish the experience the local way—relaxing and enjoying traditional meze and a glass of local wine.

What's Included

  • Bottled water 1 L bottle per person
  • Museums entrance fees - 5 EUR per guest and 2 EUR per guest
