It is about the journey of two young individuals in the wild nature of Greece. Their routes follow the trails inside the National Parks of Greece with the purpose of encountering and introducing us to the wildlife and, in some cases, the flora of the areas they explore (reptiles, birds, mammals, insects, and amphibians). They also aim to raise awareness among the public regarding the extinction of rare species.

«Lemnos: In Hephaestus' den»
Episode 8
Wandering through landscapes of unique geological interest, deserts of sand, rock, or... salt, Gregoris finds it hard to believe that he is not in another continent but on a Greek island! However, Lemnos is more than familiar to Elias, as his family comes from here. The two friends encounter and closely observe some peculiar reptiles, mammals, and insects they come across on the paths and in the caves, while they don't miss the opportunity to dive into the azure waters and come face to face with a seal! Among their findings are ancient human skeletons unearthed by the rain, while when night falls, striking night owls make their appearance as they search for terrifyingly sized... spiders!
On the island of Hephaestus, in this minimal and serene landscape of the Northern Aegean, Elias and Gregoris complete the second cycle of their excursions in the unparalleled beauty of Wild Greece.
