Visit the breathtaking wetland of Agras-Vrita-Nissi, only 6km away from the city of Edessa. The high conservation value of the wetland is attributed to the presence of rare birds. Endangered species, such as the ferruginous duck and little bittern, rest and feed at the area together with other birds like the swans, coots, little grebes and moorhens. Enjoy a romantic boat trip around the Ágras Lake, in the heart of the wetland, and observe the birds nestle in the lake.
