Castle – Merichas cliff
The path starts shortly after Panagia village. The route to the cliff is easy and not long, accessible to all. During the hike we will discuss about nature, the history, myths, customs and traditions of Iraklia. We might encounter goats living free on the mountains as well as an eagle’s couple.
