According to CNN Travel, the Greek island of Samothrace is a ‘vision in green.’
The ragged rocks of Mount Saos, the island’s highest mountain at 1,611 meters, give way to gentle slopes covered in uniquely shaped plane trees, oak woodlands and majestic cedars.
Located in the Aegean Sea near Greece’s northeastern border with Turkey – Samothrace is a quick ferry ride from Alexandroupoli on the mainland.
The Greek island was once known across the ancient world for its religious sanctuary yet today it is becoming a hotspot for ecotourists.
CNN Travel highlighted some appealing features of the island and said it is a place for ‘young feet’ with young campers in the 20s and 30s experiencing the undisturbed nature.
River hikes, waterfall pools, mountaineering for those with experience, beaches and boating, are a few of the adventurous activities people can experience on the island.
