1. The Rural Route

The route starts from Abeliona and gradually ascends on a dirt road that has a majestic view of the chestnut forest. The first stop is a small plateau, with perforated terraces that once defined the cultivated areas. At the edge of the plateau is the church of Agiannakovos (Agios Iakovos), where every year the villagers of Abeliona organize a festival. From there, an uphill dirt road continues along Mount Vigla.

It runs along the western slope of the mountain, with its scattered oaks, and overlooking the ridges of the mountains of the Neda valley, and in the background the sea. The end of the route is a point with a panoramic view, from where the Temple of Epicurean Apollo can be seen.
