Nature

In April and May the ground is a carpet of flowers, changing colour from day to day. The fields and hills are rich with trees other than olives. One of the most eye-catching is the Kockikia tree which in spring is a mass of purple flowers. Everywhere  the dark green cypress trees pierce the olive groves,adding yet another dimension  to the landscape. There is a long river the way to Agios Ioannis,east of Sidari.The river is called tiflos and many fishes live in it.Along the river there are walk paths that one can walk and relax through the green fields.

The Venetians offered money to plant olive trees and to replace wild ones with cultivated ones.Within a hundred years there were more than two million and this number has increased until today.Corfu is one endless olive grove. Because olive trees in Corfu are rarely pruned they look quite different from those in the rest of Greece, being much taller and wilder.

Lots of green hills around with olive groves and fantastic views. Many walk paths for anyone who enjoy to have a walk in the nature - good exercise for the body and the mind.
