This tour starts high in the mountains of Lefkas near Agios Donatos, where you'll spot Cold War relics like old communication towers and observation posts from a former US Air Force site that was active in the late 20th century. From up here, the views alone are well worth the trip. Then, you'll head through forested trails to Karya and Eglouvi, where you'll check out the ancient stone vaults that once stored the island's prized mountain‑grown lentils. You'll wrap things up in the village square with a coffee or a glass of ouzo – the traditional anise drink – before heading back to your accommodation.
