Things to see and do Therma

To discover the beauty of the island, travel up the Fonias River, called "the killer" for its tumultuous flows during the winter. It flows through landscapes of unwavering majesty and creates some of the largest natural pools and waterfalls on the island. As you descend into lush vegetation teeming with sycamores, maples and beech trees, the trail becomes more challenging - bring closed-toe shoes. The highest waterfall falls 35 m, with an impressive crash. A dreamlike scenery without equal in the Greek islands.

Many natural pools have formed around Therma, created by the rivers and streams that cascade from Mount Fengari towards the sea. With this, freshwater swimmers will be spoilt for choice. Close to the village, reach the cold waters of Paradisos. Further on, you can walk to the waters of Gria Vathra, or try the trail that climbs from the coast to the natural pools of Grigorakis, next to an ancient monastery, Moni Christou. The view from this touching building, now closed, is splendid.
