What I loved most in Montanema

Montanema handmade village undoubtedly is a unique hotel. A wonderful place surrounded by virgin nature. There are many things you can adore in your stay there. From the luxury homes with modern fireplaces, the spring water who running in your tap, the wonderful staff, the excellent food in Fournia restaurant or the Irema cafe. But what I liked most in Montanema are small details in architecture and decoration that really touch me, and some of these I want to present to you with my photos.

Hiking at Montanema

The first morning during our stay in Montanema handmade village we walked into the canyon in front of the hotel following Kerasiotis River.

The trail was great for hiking in the mountain. Our guide Constantinos with endless knowledge of local flora gave to us useful information about the various plants that we encountered in the path.

Kerasiotis river at several points along the route forming impressive small waterfalls, while the light plays with the water passing between the leaves.

Plastiras Lake Ride

The Montanema handmade village located very close to Plastiras Lake. So you can combine the stay in the hotel with lake activities .

The other members of TBG preferred horse riding. My ride was photographic.

The landscape on the northern side of Plastiras Lake is magical. The mountains on the horizon are still snowy, while horses graze on fress grass waiting for the guests.
