Welcome to the Mani

The Peloponnese Walking Tour Company, known locally as Pelops Walks, is a specialist organisation dedicated to walking, trekking and touring this beautiful region of mainland Greece.

*

We know this area well having spent in excess of 20 years ambling around the foothills, meandering along coastal footpaths, hiking up the Viros Gorge and climbing the magnificent Taygetos mountain range. 

*

In the next few pages we will introduce you to the special culture of the Mani, together with the guided and self-guided walks, treks and point-to point programmes we offer.

*

In the words of one of the greatest travel writers of all time, Sir Patrick Leigh Fermor, in his widely acclaimed book, ‘Mani – Travels in the Southern Peloponnese’, “The quiet charm of Kardamyli grew with each passing hour”.

*

We hope that you decide to travel with us and experience for yourself that very special feeling of filoxenia (friendship to strangers) that is part of the magic of the Mani.
