Itinerary description

Another route at unigue Katharo plateau.Classic trail is until platia korifi and back for everyone. Many old stone homes and wells from past ,easy ascent and descent.Endless view to mirabello bay if clouds is not below you.Before platia korifi meeting with hunters,break for coffee and in 15min. to summit with destroyed antenna. We are decide to make round and after summit we continue down to the fields and then to 'Egisos, the south area of katharo.Some problems with fences and tided dogs from shepherds but nevermind.

    Trail très difficile. Pas de sentier visible. Montée et descente ardues. Pas du tout pour tout le monde. Mais magnifique il est vrai.
