Semi-wild ponies roam the Kefalonian fir forests of Mount Ainos National Park, Greece's smallest national park (1962), 1,628 m above the anchorages.

Practical

Coordinate approx: the Wikipedia national-park point (38°08′25″N 20°39′31″E). The horses range freely; there are no set viewing spots. A road climbs from the Argostoli–Sami highway toward the summit transmitter. Don't feed them. Hire a car from Sami, Argostoli or Poros.
