In central Messinia next to the village of Haravgi, well hidden among the hills, is the gorge of Polilimnio. The presence of olive groves and vineyards in the surrounding area does not reveal the existence of this small green paradise, whose streams create consecutive ponds and waterfalls, composing an unexpected dreamy sight.

The waterfall of Kadi stands among the big rocks of the gorge, with waters falling from a height of 25 meters onto the surface of a wonderful turquoise pond. Other larger lakes such as Kadi and Mavrolimna, give us also a chance to cool down with a swim in their cool waters.

The sounds of nature, lush vegetation and beautiful waterfalls will turn an easy in difficulty walking path of three kilometers into a unique and unforgettable experience. The tour is described as a naturalist walking activity combined with optional swimming and tasting of traditional delicacies.
