Evia
Evia is the second largest island in Greece and the sixth largest in the Mediterranean. The area of the island is 3,654 sq.km. and extends along the northeastern mainland...
The highest mountain in the Municipality of Dirfion-Messapia and throughout Evia is Mount Dirfys.
According to geologists, the mountain range of Dirfi is a tributary of the Olympus mountain range and was born during the same geological period during the Orogenetic season of the Alpine folds.
Dirfis was the favorite isolator of Hera (Dirfias Hera).
Its main peak, Delphi (1,743 meters) is visible from afar. It is wild and steep.
They call it “Little Fuji” as it looks like a volcano.
Around its bare top and under the ravines of Xerovouni stretches a thick green carpet of firs, oaks, chestnuts and plane trees, richly watered by the abundant waters of the mountain.
There we will walk on a combination of 2 wonderful paths, starting from Ano Steni uphill to the place Leiri from where we will enjoy the view of the Aegean Sea and then we will approach the wild beauty Xirovouni before descending to Steni.
Hiking duration 5 ½ – 6 hours with sort breaks for rest.
Distance: 11km
