Have you always had fantastic holidays, full of fun and breathtaking scenery but something has always been missing?
Do you remember the hot sand under your feet, the blue sea, cocktails while admiring a sunset, but still feel a void to fill?
Read on, we have just the thing for you.
Holidays are one of the most anticipated and desired moments, they are planned with great care and always seem to last too short.
Today we would like to offer you a different kind of holiday, one that will allow you to return home with a very rich bag of experiences (don't worry, this will pass through airport control, not like your suitcase, which will weigh several kilos more than it did on the way out).
In this article, we will tell you about the Corfu trail: a 180-kilometre route across the island of Corfu, from south to north.
The Corfu trail is a long path across the entire island of Corfu. The trail was gradually created by some friends living on the island. Thanks to the wise planning, the Corfu Trail is today one of the most famous trails in Greece. In fact, it is the only one that combines natural landscapes still unspoilt by mass tourism with urbanisation: friendly Corfiotes, picturesque monasteries, Byzantine and Venetian monuments.
You will recognise this path thanks to yellow signs placed at strategic points and marked with a C and a T together with a two-way arrow. It is advisable to follow the route starting from the south and heading north mainly for two reasons:
1. Hikers will gradually prepare themselves from the gentle south to the more mountainous region in the north.
2. The most spectacular landscapes and the greatest concentration of attractions are to be found in the north of the island.
Why do we propose this route?
Because one of our magnificent villas is very close to a path of this trial: the one called Donkey Path.
We are talking about 'Villa Prokimea'.
"Villa Prokimea" is a brand new and very elegant villa in Makrades, just a few kilometres away from Palaiokastritsa and Agios Georgios, lively seaside resorts.
The villa can accommodate up to six people thanks to its three modernly finished bedrooms.
The highlight? The panoramic terraces, the swimming pool with sunbathing area and the short distance from the Corfu Trail. Just 800 metres from the villa you will find the start of this beautiful trail that will lead you to Agios Georgios, delighting you with sublime views of the turquoise bays. The 6 km can be covered either by bicycle or on foot.

Are you ready for this experience? What are you waiting for, run and book!
