- Duración: 2 h
- Temporada: All year; in blossom, in spring
- Para quién: All ages

Boat and walk · 2 h · You cross the strait in a few minutes and walk through the Lemonodasos, thousands of lemon trees at the foot of the mountain on the Peloponnese

What it is
Galatas is the Peloponnese village you face from the Poros quay, across a strait a few hundred metres wide. You cross in a few minutes on the boats that run to and fro all day. On the outskirts, at the foot of the mountain, the Lemonodasos, the lemon forest, is a huge expanse of lemon and orange trees between irrigation channels and dirt tracks: in spring, when they bloom, you can smell it from afar.
How to get there
Take the boat from the Poros quay to Galatas; from the village, the lemon forest is about 3 km north-west, on foot, by bike or by taxi. Bring water and a hat: the tracks have little shade.
