Corfu has, in comparison to its size , an enormous variety of scenery: bare limestone mountains on the Pantokrator Massif; forest-covered hillsides in the centre of the island, century-old live groves, impressive coast-lines, inland wetlands, river valleys and gorges Thus even within a single day’s hike many different landscapes will be encountered. Corfu also has the advantage of possessing many old cobbled foot-paths which link the traditional villages, and the interior of the island remains almost completely undiscovered.
