Walk over top of Plakias hill
« on: May 20, 2016, 01:17:28 PM »
Just wondering if it is possible to walk to the Kalypso Village hotel via the hill at the end of the beach ?

Very much so. Easier to pick up the path if you start at Kalypso. Best route is to take path to Damoni via olive groves from end of Plakias road and take the very obvious track to Kalypso from Damoni descending into Kalipso via a very dramatic set of concrete stairways. Then on the road out of Kalypso the track to Plakias is well signed and obvious when you get on to it. We think it is one of the best walks near Plakias.

We've done it via the part of the hill that is visible from Plakias. A bit of a scramble but good fun!
Again, as per previous post, much easier to start from the Kalypso end.

so it is still possible from Plakias then ??? If I make it to Kalypso Village hotel , are you able to enter the hotel, etc, or are you not allowed?

We went there a couple of weeks ago, there is a gated entrance ( like entering a castle ) but went through unchallenged and had a look around.
