What to expect

Hiking: 10 km and 500m of altitude difference. Along an enchanting path in the woods (10km and 500m altitude difference) you arrive at a cave hidden in the mountain: “Limeri”. This cave, very important during the Second War, was an espionage base for the partisan movements and home to a radio station.
Continuing, passing by the small church of Ag.Ioannis, you arrive at the top of the 2nd mountain on the island: Mount Akramitis. Here the green meets the "Aegean blue" for a breathtaking panorama. The whole area is included in the European habitat network "NATURA 2000" and is protected as a "monument of nature" because, in addition to the particular morphology, the natural beauty and the dense pine and cypress forest, it contains unique ecosystems of wild fauna and flora . The descent passes through a mainly stony path and boasts a fascinating view. Good athletic preparation required.
