HIKE THE MENALON TRAIL.

Greece’s number one trail! 5 days and 72 km of nature and beauty are waiting for you and your friends to enjoy unforgettable moments from one of the most highly-rated trails in Europe. The Menalon Trail is in the centre of the Peloponnese - Under 2 hours from our villa in Epidavros. The trail unfurls through fourteen villages, the Lousios River gorge, the western slopes of Menalon Mt., the valley of Mylaion River & the Northeast Gortynian Mountains.

This hike is amazing, with different terrain and countryside each day and great hilltop villages to stay in each night. We look after you and transport your bags between our hotels in the different villages, so all you have to do is buy your favourite pastries from the local bakery each morning, put on your hiking boots and walk!

View photos from our Spring ‘23 group hike - which shows you how good these five days can be.

“If you want a total escape from it all, the Menalon trail is perfect with stunning scenery and great hiking and what adds to the whole experience is going with BreakawayGreece. Chris is an excellent host, making sure, from behind the scenes, that everything is organised for you, ensuring the only thing you have to think about is putting one foot in front of the other and deciding at the end of the day, over a cold drink and local food, which view and what part of the trail was your favourite for that day.  Experience real Greek hospitality, support local businesses and meet new people - the perfect hike. 

BreakawayGreece and Chris ensure the whole experience of a total retreat away from the hectic lives we leave behind is fully met. In fact, the only question you will have to ask is ‘Chris - when and where are you running the next hiking holiday?’ Count me in!”

Vicky Lambert (hiker of the trail)

“The Menalon Trail is the Peloponnese’s star new walking route.

With stellar scenery and community support — this new ramble through Greece’s heartland is a natural balm for walkers.”
