From the top you'll see the entire island, both the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas, and nearby islands, plus ancient temple ruins dedicated to Attaviros Zeus. After lunch at the summit, you'll head back down to Agios Isidoros where local tavernas have fresh homemade food.

Akramitis Mountain Hike
Start in Monolithos, a quiet village on Rhodes' undeveloped western side, and begin a challenging hike up green slopes surrounded by cypress trees overlooking Apolakia Bay. After the steep initial section, the trail opens into areas full of colorful, scented shrubs and herbs leading to the chapel of St John. From there, tackle the final climb to Akramitis summit, Rhodes' second-highest mountain, where you'll see Halki, Alimia, Tilos, Karpathos, and Apolakia lake spread out below. The descent follows a different route through tall pine forest, taking you through a less-visited part of the island.
