Great old ruin of an olive mill. The old millstone is still there and a stable with a feeding trough. With luck you will see a couple of turtles 🐢 in the river.

If you do the hike through the three villages, you definitely have to take a break at the old olive oil mill! This place is very idyllic next to a small waterfall and you can briefly enjoy the surroundings in the shade of an old olive tree! If you're lucky, you can spot a few turtles in the river...and if you're thirsty, you can get relief from an underground spring, which was recommended by a local!
