    Description

    Explore two traditional villages on a hike through a hidden oasis featuring lush ravines, streams, lagoons, abandoned water mills, and ancient settlements. Immerse yourself in the Engares Olive Press Museum experience, culminating in a delightful traditional meal to conclude an exceptional day.

    Your journey commences in Kinidaros, a picturesque village surrounded by towering marble quarries. While historically known for its quarrymen, Kinidaros boasts a distinct identity rooted in music. Locals prioritize musical pursuits, with a majority displaying proficiency in playing multiple instruments, thus preserving the vibrant Cycladic folk music tradition.

    Leaving Kinidaros, you follow a dirt trail offering panoramic views of distant marble quarries. The path transforms into a cobblestoned route leading down to the river, showcasing breathtaking vistas where nearby mountains merge with the Archipelagos. Traverse a small ravine, revealing the picturesque landscape below.

    Upon reaching the riverbanks, a transformative experience awaits. The 18th-century double-arch stone bridge, Mill of Hadji, stands sentinel over the surroundings. As you progress towards the riverbank, encounter a cooler atmosphere, shaded areas, and thriving vegetation surrounding abandoned watermills, lagoons, and waterfalls. Witness wildlife like crabs and water turtles alongside oleander bushes and plane trees.

    Continue the journey past the serene Agios Georgios church in the fertile Langada area and a majestic four-arch water mill. Navigate through plane trees and reed beds until reaching the 18th-century tower of the Pradouna Elders. Enter the traditional farm settlement of Mesa Gitonia.

    The final leg of the trail leads to Engares, a tranquil farming village embraced by a fertile plain. Explore one of Naxos's oldest remaining olive mills, the recently renovated Olive Press, dating back to at least the late 1800s. Conclude the adventure with a leisurely meal at one of Engares's finest traditional tavernas, followed by transportation back to your accommodations.
