Itinerary description

Smolikas is the second highest mountain of Greece.
The trail starts 300 m before the Smolikas refuge.
There is a small water fountain at a short distance after the refuge. No other water availability on the trail.
I recommend that you navigate the trail in the inverse direction, on your way to the top, as this better reflects the optimal path selection.
