Ancient Olive Tree

Ancient Olive Tree

One of the oldest olive trees in the world – and a protected natural monument – is about 15 minutes from Kolymbari. It’s part of a mill and old villa, so there’s more to see than you’d think. The age of the tree hasn’t been determined, but the walls and stones of the mill date back to 1850.
