to shorten the walk, turn right at the spring, see below.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_976\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a

in Kamaria, although the village still doesn&#8217;t have a kafeneio, which would be welcome.\u00a0 Continue along the road (which eventually leads to Moni, 5 km north of Sougia), but after some ten minutes, take a track right, steeply down to cross the dry riverbed.\u00a0 This is the upper part of the Kamariano Gorge, about the descent of which later this year.\u00a0 Keep close to the river for 250m, then take the (first) track right, which climbs steadily via several bends before levelling out at a large concrete water cistern.\u00a0 Now comes a delightful 1 km walk through the pine forest, with views to Kamaria across the valley, and taking you to the church of Ag. Panagia.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_977\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Ag-Panagia.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-977\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-977\" src=\"http:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Ag-Panagia-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"Ag Panagia\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Ag-Panagia-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thepaleochorasite.com\/bobsblog\/main\/domains\/thepaleochorasite.com\/public_html\/bobsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Ag-Panagia.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-977\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ag Panagia<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Beyond here the track continues to the spring passed earlier, from where you could reverse the route through Mertes to Papadiana. Alternatively, just 150m past the church, look left for a small cairn of stones, which marks the start of a path climbing 300m (nearly 1,000 ft for UK walkers!) to the col at Seladha.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve been this way before, on the walk from Rodovani to Sougia (see &#8216;Explore&#8217; Sept. 2013). The ascent is gradual, once enabling mules to transport loads between villages, including, so I&#8217;m told, salt collected from the Anidri beaches and taken to Kamaria, Maza, Rodovani and beyond, in exchange for fruit and vegetables, mainly potatoes and apples grown locally.<\/p>\n<p>The varied scenery on this walk hasn&#8217;t yet included a sea view, but is rectified on reaching the ridge, where the Libyan Sea stretches out far below.\u00a0 This is a &#8216;cross-roads&#8217; of sorts, the path to Sougia turning east, the mule-trail to Prodromi contouring around the hillside ahead, and we scramble up right, to quickly meet a wide track, and a 3km walk, high above the villages walked through earlier, back to Ag Ioannis.<\/p>\n<p>All this walk, for which you should allow 5\/6 hours for the full route, is covered by the Anavasi 1:25 000 Samaria\/Sougia map.\u00a0 It&#8217;s worth noting that in summer, the 6.15am Paleochora bus to Omalos &amp; Samaria Gorge would drop you at the turn to Papadiana, from where you could meander down the valley to Moni, on to Sougia, and return to Paleohora by ferry.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t.huge-it-share-buttons {\n\t\t\t\tborder:0px solid
