Logara - Pounta - Mesada - Tserdakia - Chryssi Akti - Drios (along the coast)
An alternative to the asphalt road, this easy hike above the sea on varied terrain follows paths and dirt roads. A pleasant hike, interspersed with swims, that starts from Logara beach and lets you choose your route along narrow paths running alongside the sea, that arrive in Pounta in five minutes (on a cliff path that connects the two sandy beaches) and in Tserdakia in 20 minutes. At Tserdakia, the dirt road above the sea heads uphill and then downhill towards Chryssi Akti. After a ten minute walk the road leads into a smaller path that arrives in Drios approximately 20 minutes later.
Distance: 7 km., 1 hour and 30 minutes
Marpissa – Avkoulaki
A short hike along a smooth dirt road, which starts at Marpissa and heads southwest. Look for the stadium in the village. Follow the asphalt road for about 1 kilometer. Turn right onto the dirt road leading to Agios Georgios in Avkoulaki. Walk slightly uphill though the fields and past some farmhouses. After a few hundred meters, at the small village of Tourlo, the trail heads into the mountains. The path is steep and rocky, passing though low vegetation. Arriving at Agios Georgios is rewarding, and you can rest in the courtyard of the pretty monastery, and visit the well and river under it in Avkoulaki.
Distance: 5 km., 1 hour
