Full-Day Hiking Mount Taygetos Summit with Picnic

Reaching the alpine meadows the smell of the fragrant shrubs and wildflowers dominate our senses where the most important the endemic herbal tea is dominant. On our way we stop to enjoy the spectacular vistas the mountain generously offers. We continue uphill to the so-called ''Portes'' meaning gates, a split of the ridge that marks our entry into the final part of our hike to the summit. Soon we will be walking the so-called ''immortal ridge''. A few more steps and we touch the summit plateau ''conquering'' the highest peak of the mountain at 2407m. The view from the top is breathtaking to all corners of the horizon. After tasting a delicious picnic that will get our batteries charged, we take the way back.
