Timfi’s Mountain Refuge “Astraka”

The rugged mountain landscapes all along the hiking path which leads to the climbing shelter of Astraka and Dracolimni (Dragon Lake) continue to support a traditional nomadic herding life in which mules are the only means of transportation. Among the green meadows and hillsides graze herds of cows and flocks of sheep, while Dracolimni is populated by Alpine newts, an amphibian native to these mountain lakes.
