Now Playing: The Mount

Out of the town there are a lot of interesting places to see, and one of them is Mount Pantokrator, the highest mountain on the island.  It is 918 meters high and has a small monastery on the top of it.  There is a wonderful view to all directions from up there.

On the way to Pantokrator the road is winding and narrow but lies between endless olive groves which are the green beauty of the scenery.

 

On the mountain there are a lot of villages easy to reach by car, motor bike, bicycle or on foot.  Walkers usually follow the route:  Ipsos beach, Ayios Markos, Korakiana, Dassia and back to Ipsos from a different road.

 

Mount Pantokrator is for those who love the countryside and its tradition. Visitors can admire the breathtaking view of the green olive groves and the sea, as well as the magic sunset and dawn. Ideal for relaxing and enjoying natural living in a friendly atmosphere.
