Itinerary description

This trail starts at a dirt road that passes for a few hundred meters through vineyards. We then turn into a forest that is dominated by pine trees. After a few hundred meters we come to an open area, and turn right to descend. On the left are vineyards, and after two hundred meters we come upon an old stone hut. In the spring we find yellow ophrys orchids on the stony slopes on the right. We pass stands of carob trees, which in the fall are covered with deeply aromatic seed pods. We then come to a large olive grove on the right, and take the opportunity to walk through the rows of trees. After that we make a sharp right hand turn and return to the last portion of the route.
Animals we might see on this route include many species of songbirds, bee eaters, Bonelli's eagles, wall lizards, psammodromus lizards, geckos, and of course many varieties of insects.
