TENARO POINT PICNIC AN EXTRA WALK

TENARO POINT AND PICNIC THURSDAY 17th MAY

Today saw us do an extra walk, as part of our expanding walks programme in the Mani. These walks have a slightly different format to them, than our Tuesday walks. They usually last all day and involve a picnic and cover places further away from our base in Stoupa.

So 17 of us and JJ the dog left Stoupa for the two hour drive south to the most southern tip of mainland Greece and the second most southerly point in mainland Europe. Stopping for coffee on the way and also for a brief look at Vathia. We arrived at the car park for the 45 minute walk to the light house at Tenaro point. Once there we had a picnic and after one hour returned back to the cars. It was a sunny day but the wind did rather get up on return journey. On our return to the cars our journey back to Stoupa took us via Gerolimenos were we had a refreshing cool drink and some people even managed ice cream. A word of thanks to Bob, Stuart and Richard for driving us down there and to Ceceile for providing me with some extra pictures.
