Hiking
The rocky path is a steep shortcut starting at the edge of Hortiatis village, offering a more direct but physically demanding climb. The terrain consists of natural rock stairs and loose stones, requiring careful footing and basic hiking fitness. After about an half-hour to an hour of ascent, the trail opens into a plateau of beech and chestnut trees. From the plateau, you can head east to the mountain refuge or continue upward to reach the Kolosourtis summit. It is best used for a fast ascent, as the steep, rocky incline can be slippery and challenging during the descent.
