On this full day excursion, you'll climb aboard a 4x4 vehicle and head deep into the rugged hills of central Thassos. Cue rocky slopes, remote villages and soul-stirring views. The route takes you to the Panaguda Monastery, Mount Ipsarion and Theologos springs. Tina, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The 13th century village of Theologos used to be the capital of Thassos. Here we'll visit Theologos springs and waterfalls, one of the natural treasures of the island.'
Buckle up and speed off along winding country tracks to our first stop - Panaguda Monastery. It's a serene place to enjoy the rural surroundings and the peaceful atmosphere. Leaving the monastery, we'll drive on rough tracks to the highest peak on Thassos - Mount Ipsarion. It's quite a mountain, rising to 1204m, one of the highest points in the Aegean islands. From here, the views take in the whole island and extend to the mainland too. We'll enjoy a simple refreshment stop while drinking in the panorama.
On the way back down from the top, on tracks surrounded by wild vegetation and wonderful scenery, we'll stop at the settlement of Theologos to take in the springs and waterfall. Local rules in Theologos aim to preserve the village's traditional appearance - you'll notice the harmonious architecture as you take a short walking tour through the ancient lanes of the village, and finish with a drink in Neromilos.
