Lefkes is a charming inland mountain village in Paros, once the island’s capital during the Middle Ages. Located 10 km from Parikia and 300 m above sea level, it offers breathtaking views of the Aegean Sea and Naxos.

Following traditional Cycladic architecture, Lefkes features whitewashed houses, blue accents, beautiful churches, and olive-covered hills. Away from mass tourism, it’s the perfect spot to relax, mingle with locals and enjoy the authentic atmosphere of Paros.

A paved Byzantine-era footpath leads from Lefkes to the village of Prodromos and down to the sea, offering a scenic walking route through the island’s history and landscapes.
