    Hiking

    In the cordoned off area are two statues next to a natural stone with the flags of Greece, New Zealand, Australia and Great Britain,
    One shows an Allied soldier and the other a monk from Preveli Monastery who supported the Allies in WWII.

    A monument to the monks who saved over 5,000 Australian soldiers during World War II. They were led through underground passages to British submarines and were thus able to escape.
