Itinerary description
Great alternative to the Lissos walk that nearly everybody does. If you are in Sougia for more than one day it is highly recomended. The route is clear on propper paths and there are great views down the valley and along the coast after the peak.
You need to simply follow the usual Lissos route along the gorge and then keep going straight on where Lissos is marked turning left. Keep following the gorge and then follow the red dots to the right up and out of the gorge. Eventually you will be brought back down in to Sougia by the ferry terminal.

Photo doesn't really show it but this is the peak behind the hill where you start to decend through bushes at first and then along the side of the hill with good views.

Sougia comes in to view
Sougia comes in to view after which the path opens out in to a gravel track. Can be a bit slippery on the loose stones.
