Background on Walking Holidays in Kefalonia, Ionian Islands, Greece
A quick tour of the island
Kefalonia is the largest of the Ionian Islands, north of Zakynthos (Zante), south of Lefkada and Kerkira (Corfu). Much of it is wooded and mountainous, with broad summits rising to 1627m (Mt Ainos), in the south, and over 1000 m in the centre of the island. There is lots of limestone scenery, including spectacular caves that can be visited. It immediately looks like a great place for hiking, with possibilities for hill and coastal routes
