Routes Worth Exploring

The enchanting hiking trails of Kavala.

There are many reasons to fall in love with Kavala, but the hiking trails will make your stay unforgettable. The most known of these paths is the Environmental Path of Old Kavala, a magnificent route of about 3 km. It features centuries-old plane trees, quaint wooden bridges, crystal clear water bubbling from natural springs, small hidden caves and steep cliffs.

Be sure to stop at the watermill to learn more about the old milling process used in the past. Discover the magnificent waterfall that divides in two, a part of which reaches a height of 6 metres. The water cascading over the rocks spills into two deep, natural pools that are ideal for swimming in summer.

Water Road is another path that is worth exploring, one that follows an old watercourse used to supply the city during Ottoman rule. Lastly, there is the ancient Via Egnatia, a route of deep historical and cultural significance, of which much survives to this day.
