      "An interesting and historic mountain. Took the trail up from the city streets to the top, and back a slightly different route - there are many diverging trails so try not to get lost. Overall rating 7/10, a beautiful view of Athens and the Acropolis and a beautiful church and restaurants at the summit" — MountainQuest • Jul 3, 2022
      " started from the Assos village square, hiking up to the narrow neck of land that connects the hill to the mainland, now occupied by a car park. I then took the paved route that zig-zags up the eastern flank of the hill to the castle main gateway, with splendid views on the ascent. I headed south on the trail, leaving it to climb up to the south top on a faint path through the undergrowth, on which sits a large bastion above a terrace, scattered with rubble after the devastating 1953 earthquake on the island - the castle was very badly damaged. The Kefalonia Anavasi map (published 2019) shows a 154m trig point on this terrace. I found no trace of this - possibly damaged and removed after the earthquake. The bastion was not climbable, but I reached the highest natural point. I then headed down to the trail, taking it north past the main gateway to investigate the north top of the hill. On this sits a ruined watchtower, with fine views. My GPS trail showed this to be 11m higher than the south top - so, as a conservative estimate, I put the summit as 160m+, at 38.38361N; 20.53408E. Investigations completed, I headed down by my outward route to re-join my wife in the village squa..." — marktrengove • Sep 28, 2021
      "I started from the Themata Monastery, where my wife dropped me off at the end of the tarmac road. I took the access grit road up, which zig-zagged up the valley at generally easy gradients to reach the ridge at about 900m at Ypoporos. There were three sets of barking dogs to contend with, but luckily all were contained by fences. Turning south, I followed the road up, more steeply now, along the main ridge, following it when it circumvented the summit cone to reach the highest wind turbine. The summit was nearby - sporting a collapsed concrete trig pillar and a ruined chapel, dedicated to the Resurrection. A good viewpoint. I headed down by my outward route, reaching the monastery before my wife arrived, so I hiked further down the tarmac road for half an hour before she reached me." — marktrengove • Sep 22, 2021
      "A traverse of Oros Ainos, using the Atsoupades Trail, marked by a white square on yellow background. I was dropped off at the trail head in a quarry (at 38.16586N; 20.67513E) below the town of Digaleto by my wife in the hire car. The trail wound through the piles of limestone grit, and then through low cork oak woods, and up to a battered rest area at Karvounolakos (at 38.15661N; 20.66783E). There I joined a grit road south east over several kilometres, with only about 40 metres of ascent, to the next battered rest area at Pigadia (at 38.14995N; 20.68096E). From there the real climb began up the steep Kefalonian fir-clad slopes of the mountain, with the trail zig-zagging through the shady forest nearly all the way to the summit. Some 100 metres below the summit, I crossed a higher grit road, meeting the first people all-day who were taking the much shorter route from the car park at the end of the public access road. The trail emerged from the fir forest just short of the summit crest, and a brief ascent over limestone brought me onto the craggy summit of Megas Soros - the highest top on the mountain. This sported a large cairn, trig point with summit book in a metal case, an..." — marktrengove • Sep 20, 2021
