What a rewarding hike to the highest mountain of Cyclades 1004 m. The easiest way is to go to Aria Spring and start the trek No 2 from here. Depends on your fitness level the climb takes 60-90 minutes. The trail is well marked by red dots or follow the stones cairns. The views are stunning and the goats will make you company, they freely roam around. Unfortunately when I reach the summit it was misty and I could not have “Instagram pictures” still I enjoyed the hike. From the summit your can return back or take more difficult northern path. To get to the trail head at Aria Spring take a car and park it there or take a bus and ask to be dropped at the junction towards the spring and walk about 1 km. Refill you water bottle at Aria Spring before and after the hike.

Aries Spring is a picturesque spot with a wonderful view of the village of Filoti. The stone-built spring, located under the cool shade of an age-old plane tree.
Very much enjoyed our stop here after Hiking Mount Zas. We didn't take the more difficult path down the backside of the moutain, so we had to make a seperate trip to this spring. You can drive right up to the site, though the road is very narrow on a cliff. The spring itself is very nice, fresh, cool and drinkable water. Glad we stopped here to take this in.

Mountain Zeus sits 1003 meters high and the cave is at 600 meters high or 1950 feet. First the drive to the cave is a bit treacherous narrow without guardrails. You park on the mountain side with just enough room for one car to pass. The hike to the cave is half wonderful with steps and path and the other half is a climb thru the rocks, for sure doable. But it is more than 20 minutes Once you are at the cave it is cool. The cave is huge and very cool. Before and after the climb enjoy the running spring water from a faucet by the steps. We did it.
