Itinerary description

Cross the bridge towards Mesochora and then right on the dirt road that leads to the Monastery of Kimiseos Theotokou. After the monastery continue on the road until you reach the clearing at Pades with a cow stable. Until here you may come with 4x4 vehicle. Look for the well-trodden trail that climbs through the fir forest and ends on a plateau. From there you should climb towards the ridge. The going is not easy. Then follow the ridge to the peak. Magnificent views to several South Pindos mountains.
