Path 1: Chora - Kentarhos (Kallitsos)

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. Path 1 starts at Kentarhos (Kallitsos), descending to the south from the picturesque village, and ends in Pano Chora. About 500 meters from Kentarhos, it starts to follow the old dirt road up to Vounaki, with a very beautiful view to the east, and from there it continues for another 1,300 meters to the gorgeous little church of the Upper Cross (Pano Stavros). Next it descends to the church of the Lower Cross (Kato Stavros), passing below it, climbs to the church of Saint Stephen (Agios Stefanos), and continues to Chora, passing a small stone bridge and an old well (about 700 meters before Pano Chora), and ending at the square of the Mills. It is approximately 4.4 kilometers long; estimated hiking time: 90-100 minutes. This is the beginning of the path from Kallitsos.
