Butterfly Valley

Approximately 5km south of Paroikia, on the Paroikia-Alyki road, a fork to your left will lead you to the area Psychopiana where the “Christ of the Forest” Monastery is located. Just west of the Monastery is the “Butterfly Valley”, one of the most significant biotopes in Greece.
With its running springs and amazing array of foliage this valley provides the ideal eco-system for the hundreds of butterflies that populate the area during the summer months.
