Traditional Mansion of Poulko

The construction of this unique traditional mansion started in 1752 by a wealthy merchant and was finished in 1952.

The structure is characteristic of local architecture and has unique wooden ornamentation, exquisite colourful wooden ceilings and painted walls. It is definitely not to be missed. An expert guide will reveal the mansion’s history throughout the centuries.

Kamkouti Vineyards

The 3rd and 4rth generation of Kamkoutis family continue cultivating their own vines in order to produce wines, respecting history, values, nature and heritage.

This hilly and mountainous viticulturist area between the lake and the mountains has an exceptional microclimate, fertile and diverse soils formed from old geological sediments and good soil drainage. All these characteristics produce the high quality wines of PGI Velventos.

This charming small winery and the beautiful people will welcome you for a tour and tasting of their wines. We shall not forget to taste the excellent liqueur father Kamkoutis makes out of their grapes.

Voyatzis Winery

The Voyatzis family enjoys a long heritage as wine merchants, documented since the early 20th century.

Members of the third family generation, Yannis, who has studied oenology at the University of Bordeaux, France and has substantial experience in the Greek wine production, along with his brother, Nico, who is an engineer, and their father, Harissis, decided to return to Velvento and establish a new, privately owned vineyard.

A modern 3-hectare vineyard was created by the lake, located in an old vineyard of the Voyatzis family. Designed to produce quality wines of a distinctive character, it was planted with local and other varieties during 1991-1994.

The winery itself, a lean and modern building, hosts the winemaking areas and our tasting will take place in the unique tasting room that literally “floats” over the vines and the lake.

Skepasmeno Waterfalls

A 20 min walk on a paved path by the canal, which was built by the locals in the '50s in order to irrigate their crops. A beautiful stroll under the perfect shade of the beech and plane trees we arrive at a plateau where the river runs at your feet ! On the way back we will stop at the wooden kiosk with the panoramic view of the waterfall.
