Ride to the beautiful lake on the foothills of Mount Belles. It is one of the most important wetlands in Europe and considered to be one of the top European bird watching destinations. About 300 bird species have been observed here: some of them nestle, some winter, others stopover for rest or food. Among them, the Pelican and the Pygmy Cormorant are threatened with extinction. The area is also one of the most important cormorants’ and herons’ colonies of the Northern Balkan Peninsula.







During your visit, don’t miss the chance to participate in various outdoor activities that will refresh your mind and soothe your soul: go on a romantic boat ride (with traditional boats called “plaves”), and observe, from a safe distance, the specially constructed platforms where pelicans nestle.

يوم 3 Serres - Alistratis Cave Jeskyne - 63

Lake Kerkini to Alistratis Cave System via Serres







Stop At: Serres, Central Macedonia







See the place where cultures and religions met. Although there is no muezzin to call the faithful to prayer there are still in existence three extremely well-preserved buildings left from the Ottoman occupation that ended in 1913. Two mosques – the Zincirli and Ahmet Pasha – and the third is the Bezesteni market, which now houses the Archaeological Museum and it is well known for its 6 domes.







If you have a sweet tooth then Serres is the place to be! They have wonderful Turkish delights, Akanedes in the local dialect and Loukoumia in Greek, as well as the most famous Bougatsa, a pastry pie filled with crème patisserie and dusted with powdered sugar. There are varieties of bougatses with savoury fillings like cheese, spinach or minced meat but nothing compares to the sweet sugary taste of the original!







Stop At: Cave of Alistrati







Alistrati cave complex is one of the largest and most beautiful systems in Greece. Although known for many years by the local population it only started being explored in 1975 by the Hellenic Speleological Society. Its explored surface reaches 25.000 sq. m and its stalagmites and stalactites are of unique and rare beauty.
