Path 5: Panagia - Sykamia

Serifos is ideal for hikes and trails. Eleven (11) paths have been mapped on the island; 1, 1A, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 10 are sufficiently marked, and 7, 8 and 9 partially signposted. About 3 kilometers long, Path 5 starts at the beautiful village of Panagia (just past the church of the Virgin Mary, or Panagia) and ends at the gorgeous beach of Sykamia. About 800 meters down the path, after we pass the chapel of Saint (Agia) Anastasia, we will go through Kato Dipotamata (1,000 meters from the path's beginning), which is rich in vegetation, springs and water and has a concrete bridge. Two kilometers from Panagia, the trail becomes a dirt road that ends at the southwest edge of the beach, near the only taverna located there. Estimated walking time: 60 to 70 minutes.
