Nikiti – Agios Nikolaos – Nikiti

Walking time: 4 hours

Elevation: 215 m

Starting from the school in Nikiti, head north through the old town of Nikiti. Then you start to climb through the pine trees and olive groves on your way to Agios Nikolaus. The village is over the mountain from Nikiti and a distance of 2 km from the port of Ormos Panagias. Agios Nikolaos is famous for it’s 19th century architecture. The locals produce honey and of course their tsipouro (the local ouzo) is definitely worth a shot. The route back takes a different way and is a little shorter.
