Corfu and Paxos: Ionian lights, a guided journey

This trip is accessible to anyone who enjoys walking and is in good general fitness. Daily walks last between 2 and 4 hours, on well-marked trails. The maximum climb in a day does not exceed 530 m, and the pace is always adapted to the group. No carrying: you need only a small bag with your daily essentials and your picnic.

Your luggage awaits you each evening in your room. During ferry crossings, a vehicle handles the transfer of your belongings between the boat and your accommodation.

Travel between Corfu and Paxos is on the regular Greek ferry lines, reliable and comfortable. These boats sail even in strong wind, and the sheltered coves of the Ionian Islands mean you do not feel the swell on land.

From 5 to 14 participants.

10 days / 9 nights.

By a French State-certified mountain leader or a local English-speaking guide with an intimate knowledge of the Ionian Islands.
