The Plane Tree (Platanos) - The Plane Tree (Platanos)

What a great place on your way or after visiting the Nidri Waterfalls. You can relax with a coffe, beer, your choice below an ancient platanos tree.

Great place but the drinks are just fine!

Tsagarada Plane Tree  Plane trees dominate Pelion squares, beneath these century old trees. However, one plane tree steals the show from the rest. A living monument of nature, a tree that captivates anyone that comes across it. That tree is no other from the giant plane that is located in Agia Paraskevi square in Tsagarada. Its truck diameter is 14 meters wide while the branch opening cannot properly calculated, however it covers most of the square. In the past, the church bell was hanged under its branches, however due to the weight of it the branches didn’t last and now they are supported by a marble column. It is said that it was intially planted, four meters below its today location, while foresters have estimated that the tree age is at least a thousand year old, making it one of the oldest trees in Europe, and that is mostly due to the exceptional micro climate of Pelion and of the region in particular where the tree has grown. Whenever you visit it, you’ll be impressed. In summer under its shaddy foilage that extends through the whole square, or during winter with its leaves stripped down shaping an breathtaking sculpture. Some of the most important village moments take place such as weddings, feasts and fairs while being the main meeting and refrence points for villagers and visitors.

Good for a stop, but don't expect anything fantastic. Friendly staff and plenty of tranquility. Nice touch of having a kids playing area. Very good dessert after the hike up to the waterfalls.

Within the forest under a giant tree before going to the waterfalls. Very beautiful place for a break before continuing the hike. We had a nice salad and refreshments. Service was friendly. Yes..a good place.

Best cafe after the waterfall walk.At summer not much water,but any other season i think it will be amazing.Chill and relaxing vibes.Giveit a try!

Oh yeah! Fresh water fountains all arround the place and comfortable chairs. Excellent mango smoothie ?.

The best smoothies and Greek salad in Lefkada, the Oil used for salad is very tasty. Also, the waitress is very polite and give a lot of details. Was pleasure to eat here. Thanks.
