Açıklama

Palia Strata, as the name itself says (old walk in Greek), follows ancient route once used for communication and trading purposes. Most of its length coincides with the ancient road which connected Minoa with Aegiali.

It is the most popular long-distance route to savour and is passing through the crest of a mountain at an altitude of 350-400 meters, on a coastal path.

Starting: from Potamos, a village above Aegiali port, on a moderate hike and with no important elevation changes.

Ending: to the renowned Monastery of Panagia Hozoviotissa. 

Step back in time, before reaching the monastery of Ηozoviotissa: Asfondilitis is an abandoned rural settlement with houses made of dry-stone walls. Followingly, explore Kapsala place, the area where monks used to live in natural caves before Monastery’s building.

Let yourself admire the unrivalled sea view of the ‘Big Blue’ and finally enter into the iconic Monastery of Panagia (Virgin Mary) Hozoviotissa – the second oldest monastery in Greece. After this visit, enjoy a stroll around in the beautiful village of Chora.

    Excellent evening, on the verandah overlooking Tholaria and northern Amorgos. Dimitros was entertaining and very knowledgeable about all aspects of not just dancing, but of the island in general
