In August 2014 the signposting of the “Paths of Culture” was completed, in cooperation with the Municipality of Sikyon / Local Community of Psari and the Cultural Association of Worldwide Psariotes of Corinthia.

Psari in Mountainous Corinthia is a bare mountain landscape with a rich history stretching from ancient times till the present. After its complete destruction by the Nazis in 1944, Psari revived and relying on its rich traditions has continued its journey into the future.

ELLINIKI ETAIRIA – Society for the Environment and Cultural Heritage, in cooperation with the Municipality of Sikyonia / Local community of Psari and the Cultural Association of Psari, has undertaken the implementation of the project “Paths of Culture” with the selection and signposting of a series of routes offering the visitor the opportunity to discover and protect the beautiful mountainous agricultural land, with its virgin nature and historical vineyards.

    My family and I are visiting Psari for Christmas and New Years. What a gorgeous village and region only surpassed by the people we have met. Today, I took my children on the hike to the peak of Stavraetos from the village. Beautiful and enjoyable hike! Thank you for the markers and the guide.
