Itinerary description
Route: Voskopoja - Kisha Sheshi Konstantinit - Voskopoja
GPS file: voskopoja-konstantin_gps.gpx
Distance: 7,0 km (3,5 km one way)
Walking time: 2.5 hours
Altitude: 1.200 m (min.) - 1.350 m (max.)
Difficulty: Easy
Description:
Easy linear hike, leading uphill outside Voskopoja to the Church of Saint
Konstantin. Leaving Voskopoja heading north-northwest, the track is
shortly afterwards passing the Church of Saint Ilias before starting to
ascend on a gravel road. The track remains wide and driveable for offroadvehicles
most of the time, while staying in the forest. As the direct path to
Kisha Sheshi Konstantinit is barely visible in the woods, the track narrows
down for the last few meters and leads to a resting and viewing point
above the church. Latest from here you can only reach it by foot,
descending in a some meters of zic-zacs. Circular hiking possibilities could
not be identified in the direct surrounding of the church or the top of the
hill. Some gravel roads leave the leading track to the left and right, but do
end in the woods after a while.
