Location

On the road to the parking lot behind the Town Hall, we proceed from Vytina to Kato Vytina (which means Lower Vytina, and is also called Palaia, or Old, Vytina). Near a ruined stone house before the church of the Holy Apostles (Agion Apostolon), we will leave the road and turn left, or southwest, toward the ravine. Soon we will find a marked path for an easy 1,100 meter walk through a very lovely landscape to the beautiful bridge of Zarzi.

Two walking routes continue from the bridge. One goes straight ahead, next to the bank of the Mylaontas, and ends at the main road outside of Vytina.

The second route passes over the bridge and (after about 570 meters) leads to the little church of Saint Nicholas (Agios Nikolaos), at an altitude of 1,000 meters. The path is no longer so smooth, because part of the trail is ruined, and part of it heads steeply uphill.

Approximately half way from the bridge to the church (about 320 meters from the bridge), we can take a short detour to the left to visit a small stone shrine. If we continue to the right toward the little church of Saint Nicholas that is clearly visible at the top of the hill, we will enjoy a beautiful view of Vytina and Mainalo to the east and the lovely mountain village of Magouliana to the west.
