Skopelos, Greece - Ananias-Pefkos Walking Loop (May 2024)(HD)

Inland Skopelos - Ananias-Pefkos Walking Loop
The interior of Skopelos is often overlooked, but offers visitors a break from the crowded beaches and walkers many interesting sights. The walk was done in May while the weather is cooler - even then we set out at 8 am. If you do hike in the Summer, bring plenty of water and start early.
This walk can be found on Wikiloc under the title: “Skopelos - Ananias-Pefkos Walking Loop (Starting at Agios Paraskevi)”
See: www.wikiloc.co...
The route follows old monopatis (trails), dirt tracks, and some short paved stretches. It offers the walker a variety of microclimates in a relatively short distance.
The walk starts above Ananias, a small farming hamlet known as a verdant area on the island, with plum, olive, and other fruit orchards, and a growing number of small vineyards. The trail descends into the Potami Valley (River Valley) and ascends the other side to the Pefkos ridge. Pefkos (Pines) is a charming community of old kalivis (country stone houses) - most of which remain as they were 50 years ago - offering a fascinating look into the past.
The loop also passes a number of small churches including one that hides the ancient walls of the Temple of Athena (see: 03:11 mark in video).
We saw interesting wildlife on the hike (unfortunately, not filmed) including Lago (Jackrabbit) and a family of Kounavi (Stone Martens).

iTererant's videos all seem to possess a single, unifying theme: “Human lives diminish between the overarching majesty of the world”. To put it another way, iTererant's work posits that our human dramas are rendered insignificant by the radiant beauty of the natural world. Yet, being creations of that world ourselves, we are inherently connected to it in a spiritual sense and made beautiful by association
