Itinerary description

Show original

Very beautiful route to Peristeri (Pelister), the highest peak of the Varnouda massif. The route starts from the parking lot of the Molika hotel and immediately enters a wide, dirt and well-marked path through the forest. From the wooden platform at about 2000m, the Rocky Trail begins, where the movement takes place on large stones with some assistance of the via ferrata type (wire ropes and metal steps) in places. This particular terrain continues almost to the top of Pelister and requires caution since even in good weather the minor passages are slippery. The risk and difficulty of the route increases dramatically in case of rain or ice. From the top we have a wonderful view with the Prespes stealing the show. The return was made by the dirt road back to the hotel. The course can be done in good weather in a considerably shorter time but there were long delays during the ascent. It can also be combined with Malo and Golemo alpine lakes if there are two vehicles. With O.L. Serron
