Introduction

In the centre of mainland Greece, in the heart of Pindos, lies a well-hidden paradise, unknown to most travellers, the Agrafa Mountains. An inaccessible place that remained unmapped by the Byzantines and was not occupied by the Ottomans and other conquerors. Until the 1950s no census had been taken in the area. Electricity and other amenities of civilization came after the 1980s and many villages today still do not have asphalted roads. That’s why this remained a virgin, pure, authentic, unexplored and beyond real place, ready to welcome a limited number of Greek and Green students who are seeking a unique life experience in their journey of learning Greek.

Dozens of wild peaks succeed one another creating the most remoted mountain group in Greece. The area’s remoteness, high altitudes, dense forests, ravines and rivers have contributed to the preservation of rich wildlife and dozens of endangered species of Greek fauna and flora. The region of Agrafa and Finix Adventures, in particular, offers a program of alternative holidays, all year round if you love the mountains, adventure and exploration.

Why Greek and Green found a home here?

If you are here, you probably have been following us for some years and are already part of the Greek and Green family. Our learning programmes are characterised by their alternative spirit in learning theory, and our way of teaching Greek as a second or foreign language is penetrated by the Scandinavian methodologies of outdoor education and experiential learning.

With a community of 10K+ students from all over the world, we eventually needed a place that encompasses our spirit and is known for the high standards of professionality that characterise Greek and Green. We could not have found a better partner than Finix Adventures as a host for our first physical community course. We partnered to bring to proudly offer you the first alternative experienced-based programme, having its pillars in both language activities and ecotourism activities in the Agrafa area.

At Greek and Green, we are known for our creativity in designing from scratch our programmes, perfectly adapted to the needs and levels of our students. But what makes us unique, is that we consider the environment as our third teacher!

That is why Greek and Green found a home in Agrafa, and that is how you are going to learn: by doing all sorts of outdoor activities this environment has to offer by its unique landscape while levelling up your Greek language skills.
