Path way


Can anyone please let me know where we can find this pathway start and finish thank you

It looks like the path at the top of Panagia, which leads up to the viewpoint with a little hut? If it is the same path, you will find it by walking up past the church to the road, then turning left. The path is off to the right. The same path goes up to the hut then back. It can also be accessed from the other direction, also in Panagia.

Here is a link to my photos on Flickr. You will have to wade through the photos of Panagia but it will take you on that walk … it’s lovely.

Hey Toni :slightly_smiling_face:

Ellie’s right! It’s a path just above Panagia. The start of the path is exactly here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/7FgYa7FjYUXdBmNV9

Ellie took the more scenic route by walking up from the village, but you could also get there by car if the day is too hot or if you lack the stamina.

Great photos, Ellie. Thank you for sharing!

I’m glad you enjoyed the photos, Augie and Toni!
And thank you for the more precise directions on finding the path :slightly_smiling_face:

We love that walk, which always ends with a delicious lunch in Panagia. We have friends who live in the village so it’s a fun chance to meet. We will be in Thassos next month so hopefully we will be doing the walk again!

Our friends have a car, so most years they take us on a tour of the island, always stopping somewhere new. Usually one of the many beautiful mountain villages. We have been to Thassos about 15 times now, and love it more every year!

Hi Toni

I reviewed the whole walk in my review in 2019 which sits in the review section on here

Added below Day 4,

However, I took the long way round and discovered it by chance on seeing the Archway in the distance. The real entrance is on the main road above Panagia and on the right as you walk up the road. If you see where I came out it will give you a good idea. It takes you up through the forest.

Hi Toni,

No not been recently, we can’t travel abroad any longer.

We tend to go to Warners in the UK for our breaks these days.

I forgot to ask previously how long roughly does it take to walk the pathway

Hey Toni :slightly_smiling_face:

It’s a short, albeit lovely walk.

I normally walk faster than the average person, and it takes me about 10-15 minutes (or 20-30 minutes round trip).

I would say it takes about 20 minutes at a gentle pace to get from the start of the path to the kiosk at the top, plus another 20 minutes to return, so a total of 40 minutes, round-trip.

Please be careful when stepping on the carpets of fallen pine needles - they can be a bit slippery, so they deserve extra caution.

Thank you Augie at the moment the walks are closed due to risk of fires because of the winds
Hopefully we get to go before we travel home if not next year :folded_hands:t2:

Hey Toni, good news! Tomorrow, the mountain roads will be open because the fire risk will drop a notch.
