    The route starts at the parking lot at Forellensee outside Zaros. The paths are maintained and relatively easy to walk.

    Alternatively, you can optionally visit the monastery church at Moni Agios Nikolaos (see photo) along the way.

    At the top, the chapel Agios Ioannis invites you for a short visit.

    I still had some time that day, so I continued to another small chapel (Ιερός Ναός Αναλήψεως Δύο πρίνοι) and then returned through the gorge to Forellensee.

    In total, I met about 15 people, so at least in autumn the route does not seem to be very crowded.

    Conclusion: A great hike
