Pheraklos Castle Ruins

Beautiful view from above.
Since it is an unprocessed rocky way up you should definitely pay attention to sturdy shoes! But just by this original, rocky climb it is a lot of fun and the view is really gigantic :)

To the north of Charaki are the remains of a Johanniter castle on a small mountain. It was conquered by the Johannites in 1306 and at that time served as a prison for a long time. The ascent to the castle ruins is from the land side (shortly before Charaki there is a road on the left up to the rock). From there it is a 10-minute climb. Only some of the walls of the fortress have survived, but the climb is worthwhile because of the beautiful view.

Ruins of a fortress of the Order of St. John. Very steep access. The climb should not be attempted without sturdy shoes. Beautiful view of Agia Agathi beach.
