The route starts at the chapel of Saints Peter and Paul, located 1.5 km south of the village. A good dirt road leads here, running along the left side of the ravine. After passing a recreation area, we continue initially on a forest road and later on a path that moves along both sides of the ravine through a beautiful plane tree forest. Eventually, we reach a point where the gorge narrows and the path turns sharply right, exiting the forest where it meets an agricultural road.
The continuation to Ardameri is on dirt roads. Since the road straight ahead passes by a large sheepfold, it is better to head uphill along the barren slope on the left until we meet a small forest road that descends to the chapel of Agia Paraskevi. From here, we continue left on the wide road and, after crossing the stream, we turn left onto a steep, paved path that goes up to the square.
P.S. In the spring, the stream carries a lot of water, and you will find it difficult to cross without getting wet.
