Seven Springs, Natural freshwater valley in Rhodes, Greece
Description
Seven Springs is a valley on Rhodes where seven natural springs flow together to form a small stream. The waters wind through pine forests before filling an artificial lake held back by a dam.
History
Italian engineers built an extensive water system in the 1920s to supply agricultural areas with water. They carved a 185-meter tunnel through the rock to direct the flow where it was needed.
Culture
The restaurant here dates back to 1945 and serves Greek food made with ingredients from the area. The cooking reflects how people in this region have eaten for generations.
Practical
You can walk through a 185-meter tunnel with water flowing beneath your feet, or take an alternative path above ground that goes through the forest. Choose based on what feels right for you.
Did you know?
The artificial lake is home to the Rhodes minnow, a fish species that lives nowhere else on Earth. This small fish makes these waters truly one of a kind.
