What to expect

  1. Ano Korakiana
    Pass by
    Ano Korakiana is a beautiful and traditional Corfiot village built at the foot of the mountains Korentis and Korakio from which it got its name. Ano Korakiana extends linearly in the direction east-west, around two parallel roads which are its backbone. It is a medieval village which has broadly maintained its architecture intact. Many old churches (a total of 37) and the house where, the Bandiera brothers lived while organizing their participation in the Italian revolution, are the most significant sights of the village.
  2. Sokrakion
    45m
    Historically, Sokraki first appeared in 1343 by participating with other villages of the region, in the construction of the Monastery of Pantokratoras, at the top of the homonymous mountain. It has largely kept its traditional architectural character, with nice, cobbled alleyways, oil mills, two beautiful squares, traditional coffee shops and of course impressive churches dating back to the 16th century.
  3. Pass by
    Strinylas is a mountainous settlement of 38 inhabitants, at an altitude of about 680 meters, in the north of the island of Corfu, just before the top of Mount Pantokrator. It is the settlement with the highest altitude in Corfu. It stands out from the other villages of Corfu in the architecture of the stone houses and in its refreshing mountain climate with the rich vegetation of the area. It is about 28 km from the city of Corfu and about 5.2 km from the top of the Pantocrator, where the monastery of the "High Pantokrator" is built.

It is located in the southern slopes of mount Pantokratoras at an altitude of 370 meters, above Pyrgi and Barbati , offering a magnificent view of the sea, in the whole bay of Ypsos, in Dassia and until the city of Corfu. The houses in Spartylas seem to hang over the steep slopes. The village is also popular for its taverns which offer delicious meals of the Corfiot cuisine.
