Snow in Loutses

The summer holidaymaker may be forgiven for thinking that Corfu is hot and sunny all year round. However, we should point out that we do experience winters which can be cold and wet. Snow is not unheard of as these images show.

Fire - 2011

Aftermath of Brush Fires

These images show some of the devastation caused by the brush fires near Loutses and Anapafteria during August 2011. Most of the smaller vegetation has recovered but not so the trees. It is impossible to assess how many of the animals, reptiles and birds survived.

Loutses Panigiri Then and Now

We have attended many Panigiris (local festivals) over the years but I think that the first one we attended in Loutses was in 2005. Since then it has evolved and is now a much larger affair as I hope these photographs show. The Panigiri is great fun and worthy of attending should you be in Corfu for the last Sunday of July.

Nymfes Waterfalls

Nymfes Waterfalls are quite spectacular during winter months and are worthy of a visit fby anyone fortunate enough to be in Corfu during winter. These are just a few shots of the waterfalls and of a nearby olive grove that we took during a recent visit.

Loutses Panigiri 2014

The highlight of the 2014 Panigiri was the Kassiopi Dance Troupe who performed dances from all over Greece. I think that you will agree that their costumes were magnificent. As you will see in the later photos, even the Pappas was enjoying the dancing!
