After coffee at the Elaphos Hotel, we drove to the start of the access track up to the summit complex at 36.27365N; 27.92723E. As we parked we were passed by an army jeep. The driver waved in a friendly fashion. We took the zig-zag track up through the pine forest. This continued through a locked gate into the restricted military area. We turned east of the complex to the highest legal area. Then we headed down by the outward route to the car. With ALT.
