We invite you to join us! more information: www.annahiking.nl (31-3-2020) IKWS210I: Selection Corfu Trail off-season (8-day tour from one location) About AnnaHiking and the Corfu Trail In 1991 we visited Greece for the first time. Our love for the country, the culture, the climate, the food, the language and the Greek has grown ever since. We feel at home here and want to communicate this feeling to others. Most people are familiar with the Greek “islands with beautiful beaches”. Many islands also boast a splendid inland with historical paths, ideal for hiking. Corfu is such an island with much more on offer than beaches alone, and we’d love to introduce it to you. The Corfu Trail is only to be hiked as a trekking in May, June, September and October. The reason is the weather and availability of accommodation along the track. We’d like to offer you the possibility to walk some of the Trail also out of this season. This trip is organized by Aperghi Travel, our Greek colleagues on Corfu. They check and maintain the paths, arrange the (luggage) transfers and the on-site support. As self-guided hiker they’ll provide you with the route descriptions and all other necessary information.

Corfu Donkey Rescue Corfu Donkey Rescue is the only donkey rescue on the island of Corfu. In 2004 we acquired our first donkey – now we have helped over 500 donkeys. The Corfu Donkey Rescue (CDR) was founded in 2004 by Judy Quinn who moved from the United Kingdom and then decided to provide a safe-haven for the abandoned donkeys on the island. The rescue was first established in the village of Poulades and by 2006 was recognized by the Greek government as a registered Greek charity organization; the first donkey charity in Greece. After years of difficulties with the neighbours, CDR received permission to settle on new land in 2009. By that winter, some donkeys were already moved to the new location with shelter from a tent, which was donated to us.
