GGT is absolutely right: definitely take your navigation system and hiking stick with you if you want to descend from the fortress to the north/northwest, around the mountain to the left and back to Azogyrés (thin black path) - it's difficult !!

Interesting castle with a great view. It's actually not much preserved, but it's still nice to look at

Hiking

This variant of the route from Spaniakos is no longer useful. The red dots are hardly recognizable in the lower part, the path is completely overgrown. The lower-lying blue and yellow path is accessible and has a similarly good view on a plateau.
