This is a walking and sightseeing full day tour out-of-the beaten track to the southeast tip of Attica, at the area of Lavreotiki. You will discover secret places and hidden treasures only 50km far from the city of Athens.

The area had been inhabited since the Neolithic period, mainly due to its rich subsoil. It was the main silver mining center in both ancient and modern Greece and it was this silver that gave ancient Athenians the power to dominate during the Classical era.

After Classical Antiquity, the mining activity was stopped, and until the mid-19th century, there are no signs of human presence in there.
