Itinerary description
GPS signal was lost in the last 7km
First day:
+2300m, -600m,
Part 1: Gortsia - Refuge B: Hike; 4.5h
Part 2: Refuge B - Mytikas - Skala - Skolo: Scrambling grade II & hike; 5h
Second day:
-2900m, +500m
Part 1: Refuge B - Kalagia - Prionia: Scrambling grade II & hike; 2.5h
Part 2: Prionia - Litochoro: Hike; 4h
The scrambling needs to be done in dry conditions and good visibility. Mild exposition. Helmet important (stones can fall).
In my case it was really hot below 2000m. I needed to drink 6l of liquids each day!
Refuge B is really advisable: good views, food and people: http://www.apostolidisrefuge.gr/en/index.html
