4x4 Birdwatching in Kerkini Lake
Lake Kerkini National Park is a wildlife haven, home to more than 300 rare and protected species of birds and animals. The manmade lake, formed in the early 1930s when the Strymonas River was dammed, is nestled in a beautiful natural landscape of forest, willows and water lillies and forms an ideal habitat for many varieties of cormorants, herons, coots, terns, falcons, eagles and more. Otters frolic in the lake, along with the largest population of protected water buffalo in Greece. Fall and Spring bring occasional sightings of wolves, foxes, wildcats and bears in the surrounding mountain areas.
Birdwatching and exploring are our keys to unlocking the beauty of Lake Kerkini. We arrive in Lithotopos and visit the monastery of St. John the Baptist before departing for the lakeshore. with a 4x4 and meet up with our local guide, who takes us on our choice of boat, bicycle, canoe or foot to explore some of the most secluded sections of the area. We finish the day a presentation about the local environmental challenges, and then a hearty lunch at a local tavern known for its fresh local specialties.
