Imerovigli Hike (Othonoi)

39° 50.6′ N · 19° 23.2′ E

Othonoi is a small hiker's paradise: trails link every settlement and climb Mount Imerovigli (Merovigli) for sweeping views across the Diapontia and out over the Adriatic.

Practical

Coordinate is the summit (OpenStreetMap 'Imerovigli'). Start from Ammos (SailingIssues). A white stone cross at Stavros (217 m) commemorates the 1537 massacre of the islanders by Barbarossa's fleet (Wikipedia). Carry water; little shade at midday.
