  • Public transport options are available nearby
  • Suitable for all physical fitness levels
  • On Tuesdays and on the 1st of May the Temple of Demeter is closed and instead you will visit Filoti village.

  • It is customary upon the visit to a church to donate a small amount of 1€-5€. These money are used for the operational costs of the church and very often for donations on behalf of the church to people/ families of the community that are in need.
