All the reports regarding this hike are valid. It takes 1 1/2 to 2 hours each way. This trail becomes more challenging the higher you go. Path more uneven and actually steeper. You need to wear proper hiking shoes, wear a hat, have a liter of water & if you use hiking poles generally than bring them. I wouldn’t hike this in the rain. The views are wonderful, the monastery - spiritual & peaceful. If you choose to go on to the top you can but since I went later in the day I was set with what I did....

This is a very challenging hike and definitely a grade 1 hard. Take a minimum 1.5 liters of water per person. This is a proper workout and I felt the effects days after. All in all it took us around 4.5 hours round trip I am 46 and my partner is 36. The last 30 minutes you are just following paint marked on rocks, no path and in some cases you need to scramble. Also be careful on the way back that you follow the path... Amazing views at the top and getting back still requires a lot of energy you’ll want a well deserved beer and food.

Calm, lot of things to see, fresh water on premises to refill, need respect for their rituals (skirt knee length must-wear for every lady) and place. Amazing energy there, especially out of season and early Monday.

Reminds me of the Greece I found in the 80s. Flower filled streets, cute shops, waterfront tavernas, small beaches with pristine water. You have experienced Greece until you have taken a ferry, hired a scooter or met Greek hospitality. This os one of the best places to experience all.
