It is almost a tradition that the June's full moon walk to the Profitis Ilias near Chandrinou is the last of the regular walks of the Freewalkers. Because of the expected high temperatures the coming months. Somewhere in September we’ll start again with the regular walks on Saturday and maybe on Wednesday. But…….. there are always people who still like to walk during the summertime and want to give others the opportunity to walk with them. So, now and then you can read on the website about an early bird, a breakfast or a lovely evening walk. Welcome to join! And if you want to organise one, please let us know by email. Keep looking at our website!!!!

We wish you a wonderful summer!

The Cultural Association of Finikounda in collaboration with the Pylos – Nestor Municipality and sports associations, organize the Public Run FinikoundaRUN2018 on Sunday 20/05/2018.
The organizing of the Public run is a collective effort of institutions, volunteers, athletes and sponsors in order to propagate the athletic spirit, give joy to all and establish the area as a pole of attraction for visitors looking for alternative tourism capabilities.
Distances include 10.000m , 5.500m, 1000m and 100m (junior)
The participation fee is 5 euros for the 10K and 5K, 3 euros for the 1000m and free for the junior event. Payments will be processed at the registration desk on the day of the run from 7:30 a.m to 9:30 a.m.
All races (except the 100m one) will start at 10:00 a.m. from the Square at the beach of Finikounda.

Spring is in the air again in Greece which means: more sunshine, less rain, lots of flowers and, of course, walkers from across Europe returning or coming to Messinia.
But….mind you, the Freewalkers of Messinia didn’t stop walking during the winter! As you can see in our photo archive on the website, lots of walks were organised this winter, almost every Saturday and Wednesday, thanks to the Freewalkers team. Since November the small Freewalkers team formed by Annie, Anita and Karin has expanded and now consists of three more members: Will, Connie and Jos. This dedicated team of 6 people seeks to organise at least one guided walk per week, on Saturdays, and possibly a second one on Wednesdays. If they are not able to guide the walks themselves they make sure that somebody else fills in. So if you know of any beautiful tracks and scenery in the area, please share your information with the Freewalkers team!
Did you know that the Freewalkers of Messinia are on Facebook? You can find us under the name: Freewalkers.eu. Visit us and like our page.
We wish you all a wonderful spring with lots of beautiful walks!

During the last weeks our website has been under construction. The Dutch and German sites are online, because now most of the articles have been translated. However the items THE WALKS  and INFORMATION/NEWS  will still remain in English. It is not possible to make all the announcements (sometimes twice a week!), in three languages....

The items HOME, ABOUT US and the ENDAXI Hiking Book are in Dutch, German and English.The item ABOUT US is interesting for all the new Freewalkers, because in there you can find some “rules” for everyone who joins the Freewalkers…….
