Hikers can explore marked, pine-shaded tracks through the Pefki valley, a few miles east of Makriyialos; climb the rocky 1500-metre summit of Afendis Stravromenos; or trek through the breathtaking Orino (or Butterfly) gorge that gashes through its flanks (start from Orino Village, 30 mins drive away or Koutsouras Forest 5km west).
