Χαλανδριανή Κεφάλα (Χανδράς-Ζήρου-Απιδίων-Αρμένων) 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Cave where the monk Jerontojannis lived, through whose efforts the monastery was rebuilt in the middle of the 19th century.

The interior of the approximately 4-kilometer-long gorge with its high rock walls and impressive vegetation is simply spectacular.

At the entrance it says “relatively easy”. That is definitely not the case. Absolute surefootedness and hiking boots are required. There is a section of about 800m that requires a head for heights. Be careful: kommot underestimates the length by far. I had planned the tour as a circular tour (down to the monastery and back along a mountain path east of the gorge). Kommot said it would take just under 4 hours and 8.5km. It's actually 13km and after 3.5 hours you've just arrived at the monastery. That said: a demanding but impressive hike!

The place is a bit "spooky", some people seem to still live there

Very nice gorge, route is like a "scavenger hunt": look for the next arrow...

We chose the path through the village. The path is not marked. Out of the gorge shortly after a pull gate left up the mountain, then directly through the middle of the village.

In the gorge, pay attention to red markings or cairns

The path leads directly through the village.
