Chapel and Altar of Zeus Ithonae on Mount Ithome

Highlight • Religious Site

Steep climb partly over the gravel road. Capeau for the hikers who complete this route, we chose the mountain road and only walked the last part to the picturesque monastery.

Direct Ascent to the Summit

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Directly at the village fountain (signpost hiking trail) a path leads directly to the summit. A bit difficult to find at the beginning, then sparsely marked with cairns. Significantly shorter than the street.
