Hiking
Being located in the heart of such beautiful countryside in the Peloponnese means that there is an abundance of outdoor activities for our guests to enjoy and hiking is definitely a great way to discover the area.
By providing the perfect base from which to explore the natural surroundings, we have recently been accredited with the select Hikers Friendly certification, an award given by the social co-operative Paths of Greece in collaboration with the Green Evolution organization.
The award is granted to those hotels demonstrating the premise that, a true hiking experience begins with great hospitality, and which fulfil very specific criteria. With our commitment to offering guests a stay rooted in authentic comfort, luxurious amenities and wholesome organic fare, Perivoli Country Hotel & Retreat is also devoted to promoting agritourism in the area. Many of our services are designed to facilitate hikers who wish to venture out and enjoy the region’s beautiful walking trails and spectacular scenery, its fertile olive groves, winding mountain paths and local flora and fauna.
We provide detailed information about the best hikes, in printed or electronic form, and also have a wide range of hiking gear for guests' use as well as offering healthy packed lunches. You can use our own circular routes that start and end at Perivoli Country Hotel & Retreat, or hike around the archaeological area of Epidaurus. You can even use ancient routes, trails and some of the most ancient European bridges, made by the Mycenaeans.
If you prefer we can also arrange for you to be accompanied by one of our experienced and independent guides, who will give you a lot of interesting information, hints and tips on the way.
If you don’t have your own equipment, we can provide you with backpacks, walking poles, raincoats and we can also give you a fully equipped first-aid kit. When you return from your hike you can wash your shoes and dry your clothes.
Nutritious Greek breakfast starts the day off just right, with a selection of traditional homemade products using organic and local ingredients, which will provide you with all the energy needed for your hike.
Our poolside Farm-to-Table Restaurant is also the ideal oasis in which to enjoy a delicious dinner after a long day’s trek and a relaxing massage for aching muscles can be enjoyed in the privacy of your room.
If you love walking through untouched country trails and would like to explore the unique landscapes of the area surrounding picturesque Nafplio in the fertile hills of the Peloponnese, then Perivoli Country Hotel & Retreat is the best place to start from.
