Following the northwestern route, passing by the pine-clad monastery of Faneromeni with its panoramic view of the Ionian Sea, you will meet the village of Tsoukalades. A village that has harmoniously matched tradition with modernity and offers you peace and tranquility, but also comfort in your choices.
The village has to present remarkable people who excelled in Letters, Science, Arts and Sports. Indicatively, we mention the world-famous painter Theodoros Stamos, the distinguished historian Panos Rodogiannis and the Balkan champion Elias Vergini.
Tsoukalades has a great sporting and cultural tradition, but even nowadays it maintains an interesting cultural movement and life. It has an active cultural club with a remarkable theatre and dance department. Every August it organizes cultural and other events entitled «Vergineia».
In the area of Tsoukalades is the beautiful beach of Pefkoulia where the pine trees literally touch the crystal clear blue sea and create a magical image, an image of freedom of the senses.
The unexplored cave of Agios Ioannis in the area is a challenge for those who love exploration.
The beautiful sunset from the area of the primary school of the village will enchant even the most demanding visitors and of course there is the pine forest of the village that leaves nature lovers speechless. It is worth walking around the village with a good company or alone.
