The picturesque village of Lofou, with an altitude of around 800 meters, has plenty of beauties. One of them is its trail, which is actually the path its residents used to take for several decades to reach the fountain that used to provided water.

It starts a few dozens of meters outside the village, at the road heading to Silikou village. It is around 1,5 km long and it follows a descending path towards Elitzi fountain, which used to provide residents with water until 1842.

The current along the trail has resulted to 1 small ecosystem, where high bushes and oak trees, as well as herbs are the dominant kinds of plantation.

Walkers can enjoy the views on their way and have a rest near the fountain where the wooden benches are found.
