The island of Samothrace fascinates with its many “Vathres”. These are natural, pool-like riverscapes created by countless waterfalls. Sometimes you can also find hot springs here! Samothrace is famous for the sanctuary of the Great Gods, a place of worship where ancient and mysterious rites and rituals were performed that resemble a cult of mysteries.
