If all chairlifts are working, no drop-off is needed. However, sometimes one or even all the chairlifts aren’t working – but that is no reason to miss this hike. We will provide drop-off and pick-up so that you can still enjoy it.
One of the most popular day hikes combining the fun of the cable-lift, 360* panoramas and an insight into village Tsvirmi. Beautifully located medieval settlement with authentic charm, off the main tourist tracks.
