About the Parnon Trail

The Parnon Trail crosses the mountain range of Parnon through fir and chestnut forests and traditional villages. This section links Sitaina with Kastanitsa, a village famous for its chestnuts, on cobbled and forest paths with views to the sea.

When to go

Spring and autumn are ideal; in October and November the chestnut forests of Kastanitsa change colour and the harvest begins. We choose the starting point by the weather and the group.
