Activity Description

Itinerary:

Thursday (optional):

Departure from Athens, Corinth, Patras upon arrangement.

Friday: Verliga – Megas Trapos – Tsoukarela .

We will visit the most beautiful alpine plateau in the country. After approaching the village of Haliki from Anilio we will climb Peristeri as close as possible to the destination and with as much hiking as necessary to the wonderful Verliga. From there, anyone who wishes can reach the peaks of Tsoukarela (2295) and Megas Trapos (2150). Estimated hiking time to the lake is one and a half hours and for the peaks from there an additional one and a half hours.

  • Total hiking time 5 hours, distance: 8km (hikes will depend on the conditions of the mountain).
  • Total activity time 10 hours.
  • Departure 8:30 from Metsovo.

Saturday: Phlegga Peak – Twin Dragon Lakes – Valia Calda.

We will visit all the magical images of the core and the Phlegga Lakes. We will approach the snowy alpine part of Montenegro and the magnificent landscape with the lightning-struck robolas and after climbing to the top and the lakes we will follow the path downwards to the core and Arkoudorema, where our vehicles will be waiting for us to wander the rest of the valley.

  • Duration of activity 10 hours (hiking 6 hours), distance 15 km.
  • The excursion is of moderate difficulty and requires basic physical fitness.
  • For those who do not want to do the entire hike, they can do a short one, as much as they wish to Arkoudorema following the vehicles.
