In the northwestern part of Peloponnese lies a land blessed by the gods, the Strofilia forest. Like a line of pine trees, it separates Prókopos lake from the Ionian Sea. Sand dunes along the coast sculptured by the waves and the sea currents have formed Prokopos Lake, Kotychi Lagoon and the Strofilia Forest, an exquisite natural environment, and also a national park of 2,200 hectares protected under the Ramshar Convention and the Natura 2000 network. This unique ecosystem of unprecedented beauty and high ecological importance incorporates the values of Greek nature: pine trees, sand and the eternal blue of the sea.
