A magnificent climb that is a must. It's the highest (?) tarmac road in Greece, rising to 1905m. We started in Pirra, about 40km before the start of the climb. We crossed the magnificent Aspropotamos valley. The climb is quite steep. In summer you have to start early in the morning because in the alpine zone you are always exposed to the sun.... read more

A magnificent climb that is a must.

It's the highest (?) tarmac road in Greece, rising to 1905m.

We started in Pirra, about 40km before the start of the climb. We crossed the magnificent Aspropotamos valley.

The climb is quite steep. In summer you have to start early in the morning because in the alpine zone you are always exposed to the sun.

Magnifique montée à faire absolument.

C'est la plus haute route (?) goudronnée de Grèce qui culmine à 1905m.

Nous avons commencé à Pirra, environ 40km avant le début de la montée. Nous avons traversé la magnifique vallée d'Aspropotamos.

La montée est assez raide. L’été il faut partir tôt le matin parce que dans la zone alpine vous êtes toujours expose au soleil.
