After our sportive outing in Olympia our next goal is a natural highlight: In the evening we reach the Gialova lagoon on the west coast of the Peleponnes. As soon as our motor goes silent we can hear in the dankness why this lagoon is so interesting. It is a total bird-lovers paradise: Everywhere birds ...
The next stop lies in the south of the pelepones! But we’re not in a hurry, because it’s finally warm again on the coast. It’s the beginning of december and for Christmas we want to be on the island of Andros. So we can still take our time and enjoy Greece a bit more. We ...
First things first: The Vikos gorge is definitly a place we want to head back to one day! But let’s start from the beginning: We leave Butrint and Albania and head into Greece. The border crossing went well, the customs officer even had the chance to try out her German a bit. Then we said ...
The end of the coastal panoramic road takes us to our next destination in Albania, the cultural heritage site Butrint. This ruin city lies nicely bedded between the Butrint-lake and the Mediterranean sea. These days it is covered in trees and a green oasis awaits us. We wander through a perfect combination of nature and ...

But not only the rain is getting better. The Scenery is changing too. After a rather flat norther part we are now entering the mountains ...
There are many ways to enter Albania but by road must be the most exciting. Not in terms of things to see, although the masses of garbage on the side of the road are quite astonishing, but in terms of fear of life and death and culture shock. Driving in Albania needs getting used to. ...
Montenegro takes us further to the Skadar lake. Our next destination invites us with the chance to see Dalmatian Pelicans. We wonder if they will be to few that we won’t be able to discover them. Anyway the Skadar lake is the largest fresh water lake of the Balkan region. It reaches over 48 km ...
On Sunday the 4th of March the regular maintenance hike from Andros Routes took a different turn. Instead of walking and cleaning a trail we went to the beach! Not to relax, but to be productive in a different way! Around 50 volunteers from all ages gathered on Ateni Beach and spent a wonderful day ...
