Itinerary description

Accessible with saloon cars, last part of the road is unpaved, but very good quality rocky road. I talk about right side, where is the little tower in the reservoir.
Google Map or other navigation software like OpenStreetmap based software may navigate you on wrong road. Try to pickup as target ""Ослиная ферма" (Farmhouse St Georgios) this is nearby donkey farm. Leave A1 at Alpha Mega Superstore
Once you did reach the farm , go straight Dam is visible.
Left side is easy , right side is difficult , you can expect steep climb if water level is high.

Turn back

Elevation was still high I did worry about rain and time I would like to see left side as well so I did turn back here, soon from this point you can reach a mountain top road and go around the Dam if you wish
