Water, stone fountains and the forest of Elati.

02 The route
Springs and a fountain.
The trail passes the large water intake at the Pyrgaki springs, which supplies Vitina, and then the stone fountain of Makrinos.
It then follows 970 m of dirt road to the place called Ellinika, below the hill where the acropolis of ancient Methydrion stood.
