Brief Description
One-day escape to the second highest mountain of the Peloponnese, in the unique Dassiou Lake, which makes its appearance from time to time in the northwest foothills of Mount Ziria. A small beautiful, seasonal alpine lake, located at an altitude of 1480 m., has an area of about 120 acres and its depth does not exceed 1-2 meters at its deepest point. In 10 enjoyable kilometers, most of them in the firs, we will visit the lake to admire the snowy – if we are lucky enough – spectacle, before we end up to Trikala Korinthias for food.

Information
Dassiou Lake is formed by the waters flowing there from the surrounding peaks of Mount Ziria. There are many firs that surround it, while the whole area is lush. In winter the landscape becomes alpine, as the snow floods the area and the lake freezes. The spectacle is amazing in every season! The trees reach up to the shores of the lake, while the green nature around creates a unique picture, like a postcard. The area of ​​Dassiou Lake is part of the Natura 2000 network, since its importance as a biotope is great – there are 4 rare endemic plants (including the other plants of the area), as well as rare species of the animal kingdom. It is very important because its waters are channeled underground to the source Kefalari, a source that supplies villages in the area. The route we follow will start from the ski resort of Ziria, will reach the lake and after walking around it, we will continue to Kefalari through springs and streams to end up in Middle Trikala.
