Zakynthos topoguide: Panaghia Skopiotissa monastery

All visitors of the island seek for a way to reach, preferably on foot, the summit of Skopos (492 m). The view across southern Zakynthos, both from the top, and along the way, and the well-preserved monastery of Panagia Skopiotissas, are proposed in all guides. Below, we suggest two hiking ways to access the summit, which avoid whenever possible the dirt roads.

Visitors of the popular Gerakas beach can try a pleasant hike, rich in environmental and historical elements, which lead to a small peak with great views across the bay.
