A walk that avoids the blocking boulders in the Skoutouljaris Gorge
A fairly challenging 14.5 km (9 miles) circular hike that starts at Masari village and navigates the hill top path at the start of the Skoutouljaris Gorge. This path provides a method to avoid the three large boulders that are wedged across the gorge, blocking the way up river for those who cannot overcome this difficult obstacle. The return route passes two lakes, then takes tracks down to the Makaris river, returning to the start along the road.

A 10 mile walk full of insight and wonder
This walk, although extensive, has so much to discover. The 12th century chapel of Moni Kymmeri nestled high in the hills, the awe-inspiring Skoutoularis Gorge and the iconic Italian Bridge. There are citrus orchards to walk through, the ever abundant olive groves, pine forests and panoramic views. This really is a day of adventure.
