Overview

Nice mostly downhill walk on mount Paiko with beautiful views of Pinovo and Tzena mountains.

Description

From Arhagelos square take the cobblestone paved alley south-west. Continue on a wide dirt road through forest. After a small saddle start descending along a ridge passing by a small pond. Not far from reaching the planes, on a saddle turn right on a smaller track that descends to the river. Cross it over a ford and continue among pomegranate trees past a saddle to emerge at Foustani village.

Amenities

In Foustani there are a couple of tavernas, cafes and small shops but no accommodation.

Signposting

I only encountered a single E6 sign along the route and a couple more in Arhagelos.

Transportation
