Itinerary description

Easy walk unless the rivers are flowing in winter/spring

Waypoints

Ahead to the plateau.

There are three places for seasonal refreshments by the parking place. When you face the mountains on the far side of the plateau two taverns are on your right and one on your left. The concrete track you need is nearer the left kafenion and heads straight towards the plateau. There is a signpost in Greek ΤΙΜΟΥ ΣΤΑΥΡΟΥ.

Continue even when the track is rough and broken

Cross normally dry riverbed and continue

If the river bed is dry ignore the squiggle where I had to find a way across on a wet January.

Up slope and turn right

At crossed tracks turn right

Keep on main path heading towards small church

Cross normally dry riverbed I had to do a diversion to find a crossing

After getting across lower down I'm back on track

Visit church return to this spot and continue ahead.

It is well worth going up to this church even though it is probably locked. There are many roses and if you're caught short there's a proper toilet behind the church. Yes, that's snow in my photo!
