Askos Stone Park
A zoo-style eco park in a northern valley, where traditional stone walls enclose habitats and you can get close to deer, goats and turtles.
Askos Stone Park sits in a valley near Volimes and covers about 500,000 square metres. The owner has converted old stone walls, cisterns and stone houses into animal habitats, which house more than a hundred species, most of them rescued, including deer, raccoons, peacocks, goats and turtles. The park trail takes about 1.5 hours to walk, with guided tours available, making it a good choice for children. Admission is about 10 euros, and it is often combined with a visit to the Blue Caves and the Shipwreck Bay viewpoint.
