Small Group Hiking on Mount Akramitis in Rodos

Summary

Hiking: 10 km and 500m of elevation gain. Walking along an enchanting path in the woods (10 km and 500m in altitude) you will reach a cave hidden in the mountain: “Limeri”. This cave, very important during the second war, was a base for espionage for the partisan movements and home to a radio station. Continuing, passing by the small church of Ag. Ioannis, you reach the top of the 2nd mountain of the island: Mount Akramitis. Here the green meets the "Aegean blue" for a breathtaking view. The whole area is included in the European network of habitats "NATURA 2000" and is protected as a "monument of nature" because, in addition to the particular morphology, the natural beauty and the dense forest of pines and cypresses, it collects unique ecosystems of wild fauna and flora . The descent passes through a mainly stony path and boasts a fascinating view.
