Water has always been the most important element in the development of Germasogeia.

The participants of the tour will enjoy a ride in the old Bedford bus, which drives partly through an earthen road. They will walk (there is some up hill walking) for more than half an hour along the nature trail of the area off Phinicaria laid out by the Forestry Department and enjoy the magnificent view of the water dam and river.

herbs and wild flowers and tree blossoms give a variety of colours and scents.
