About This Project

Kefalonia is a large island with many beautiful and contrasting landscapes that can fascinate any visitor. Beneath the imposing mountain Ainos with the unique in Europe black trees, charming shores of the island with its golden sandy beaches are waiting you for unforgettable vacations under the sun.

 

The flora of the island includes rare kinds of flowers, such as the mauve lilies Paeonia mascula-russi, the Poa cephalonica, the Saponaria aenesia, and the Scutellaria cephalonica. Ordinary flowers such as violets and saponaria also grow there.

 

Kefalonia is a mountainous island. Woodcutting and animal grazing have been prohibited since 1966 when the 28,000 acres of the mountain were proclaimed a national park. The top of Ainos, where wild horses are said to live, offers an enchanting view to the sea.
