Tips
You have to be very careful here because the path is really steep. A helmet is recommended, especially when there are a lot of people, because stones could fall. If you don't have a helmet with you, you can rent one in Spilios Agapitos for 5 euros. The markings are good, but you can lose them for a moment in some places. The stones are also slippery here and there. For people who are afraid of heights (like me) there are also airy places. But it's a lot of fun!
