The toughest climb in Rhodes but in my opinion very worth it! You start on a 'bigger' road with little traffic an go on to a small road through the forest - there is absolutely no traffic here. When I did it, it was right after some landfires, so a very surrealistic view when climbing and everything was grey from ashes. All in all a very lovely climb and like the rest of Rhodes very recommendable!... read more
