By KE Adventure Travel

Thinking about a self-guided walking holiday in Greece? In this video, KE Expert Jayne shares her experience exploring the Menalon Trail; a lesser-known long-distance walking route through the mountains and traditional villages of the Peloponnese.

Covering everything from the terrain and level of difficulty to navigation, luggage transfers and accommodation, this guide offers a real insight into what it’s like to experience a self-guided walking holiday on the Menalon Trail. Jayne also talks through the remote mountain villages, local food, monasteries and spectacular scenery that make this one of Greece’s most rewarding off-the-beaten-track hiking adventures.

If you’re looking for an authentic village-to-village walking holiday in Greece that combines culture, scenery and the freedom of self-guided travel, this video is a great place to start.
