Become a Shepherd

Become a Shepherd

An unforgettable experience for nature lovers!

What began as a simple idea has become a program for those seeking something truly authentic. There are moments that cannot be described with words — moments shaped by people, emotions, and genuine human connection.

You will visit mountain villages around Nafplio or Epidaurus, where you come into direct contact with local farmers and rural life. You will meet young farmers who live with their animals in so-called “ghost villages” — places that have been largely abandoned — as well as older, experienced farmers who remain deeply connected to nature and devoted to mountain farming traditions.

Meeting these people makes you realize how simple life can be: breathing fresh mountain air, cooking outdoors, tasting delicious local products, and enjoying breathtaking panoramic views. It is an experience rooted in authenticity, simplicity, and a deep connection with nature.

Highlights
