We live on Mount Adheres, in the hilltop refuge of Lykoparti, which means gathering of wolves. 
Until 1944, this area was inhabited by packs of wolves, as its name describes. 
It is a magnificent mountain, with low vegetation and a breathtaking panoramic view to the Saronic Gulf and its islands. 
As we experienced the beauty of our exquisite land and seascapes whilst trekking around with our horses, we developed the idea of “Horse Trekking in the Land of the Wolf”.
Today, along with our wonderful and unique horses, all members of a family now,
we have transitioned from the Horse Trekking experience into the special sense of "Horse Spirit & Active Life". 
We have transitioned into the consciousness of a deeper communication with animals and nature through a harmonious coexistence.

"We experience the sense of peace, trust, unconditional love.
The awareness that we are all one in the Universe.

And this is what we wish to share with you!"

John (Yannis) Gkotzias
He is the founder and owner of the innovative farm and the base-camp
"In The Land Of The Wolf" on the Mt. Adheres/Greece, where his horses
are living free and happy in harmony with the mother's nature spirit.


He is also founder of "The Greek Explorers" an innovative society for
the exploration of the nature.         THE GREEK EXPLORERS

Yannis has a solid background experience exploring strong routes in mountain regions and in harsh areas of the insular coasts and rivers of Greece since his very early youth.
At 1994 he started practicing mountaineering
in addition to the trekking and hiking, including climbing routes, rivers crossing etc. and also  VTT/MTB for multi-day trips .
And since then he's improved his skills participating in mountaineer and adventure missions.
He loves to study and analyze emergency scenarios of search and rescue, under extreme conditions, extreme weather and whiteout and he's reproducing them in real conditions, out on the mountainous backcountry.

Mount Olympus has become Yanni's long-life project. He has reached the summit 22 times, climbing all its various routes, mostly solos and three of them solo winter ascents.
He has realized  ascents by climbing classic routes of Alps under his belt.

As orienteering (land navigation) is his other passion, he's training through out the year in various environments unsupported and risk managing  via gps, or remote bases.
