Hiking with Donkeys near Athens, Greece

In our latest retirement travel vlog, Bev relives some childhood memories as we visit an animal rescue center for donkeys. We went donkey trekking with these fantastic animals near Athens, Greece. The Hellenic Donkey Center is an animal rescue shelter for these brilliant animals. After learning the basics of animal care for donkeys, we took them on a 5k hike and returned to a beautiful authentic Greek dinner at the sanctuary. We found this experience through Airbnb and highly recommend it if you are in the Athens, Greece, area. Please put it on your Athens things to do list for sure. Also, please consider a donation or adopting one of these donkeys. We have found that animal rescue activities are a wonderful retirement cause to get involved with as we travel the world and it all started with hiking with donkeys.
