Nydri waterfalls, Waterfall near Nydri village, Lefkada island, Greece.
The Nydri waterfalls cascade down through a rocky canyon filled with lush vegetation, creating natural pools perfect for swimming and surrounded by dense pine forests.
Local inhabitants have utilized these refreshing waters for centuries, and the area has evolved from a hidden local secret to a protected natural site of ecological importance.
The waterfalls represent the traditional Greek connection to nature, where locals and visitors gather to escape summer heat and enjoy the therapeutic qualities of mountain spring water.
Visitors should wear sturdy footwear for the uneven terrain and bring water and sunscreen, as the hiking trail involves crossing small streams and navigating through rocky paths.
The waterfalls flow year-round thanks to Lefkada's extensive underground water reservoirs, maintaining their beauty even during the driest Mediterranean summer months when other water sources diminish.
