The first hill of the day – behind Foumaristis taverna, soon rewarded us with pretty views towards Koroni, as well as the odd tantalising glimpse of the development going on at the Russian villa…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Following an old dirt track through the valley, we were soon walking on the new tarmac road parallel with the sea above Aghios Georgios and Faneromeni…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

and enjoying splendid sea views….valley views….and villa views….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We took the gently ascending main road up to Vassilitsi….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

where we spotted these little cheeses drying in a window, as we strolled through the back-streets of the village towards the kafeneon…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After a restorative lunch-break, (with rather chilly cloud-cover) the sun came out again as we headed uphill once more towards Livadakia…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We usually walk this lovely track in the other direction….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

so it was rather pleasant to do it in reverse….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The ups were the downs….and the downs were the ups….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

An unexpected ice-cream and house-tour stop was greatly enjoyed in Livadakia – courtesy of Sabine….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

and we briefly paused at the Church-with-views, before taking another set of dirt tracks down to the waiting cars….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The walk clocked 12.4 kilometres on the GPS, which with a leisurely pace of 3.3kph, we completed in 3 hours 43 minutes (plus a total stopping time of 1.48hrs). Many thanks to Sabine and to Jenny for their hospitality today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
