Hiking in the Paths of the northern Kissavos – Mt. Kissavos (Ossa).

Hiking on Mt. Kissavos (Ossa). Route: “In the paths of northern Kissavos”.

For any of these routes, we meet atour base (“Mt. Kissavos / Mt. Olympus Outdoor Activities Center”) or at the Arioprino location. Three main, long paths start at almost sea level, two from Stomion and one from Karytsa. They climb up the north east slopes of the mountain, through dense forest for the first 2/3^rds of their length and through alpine terrain for their last 1/3^rd to the summit (1978m). Huge birch and oak trees as well as fir trees dominate this amazingly rich forest, with all kinds of herbs and mushrooms, and lots of running water especially in spring, form the picture of this magnificent side of the mountain and its walks.

The full ascent from the very start to the summit, takes 5.00’ to 7.00’ hours of moderate walk at 45.00 Euros p.p.

It is possible to cut down the length of the routes if you wish, by starting your walk at a higher point or make circular routes covering special spots, starting at 25.00 Euros p.p. We can make our proposals according to your requirments.
