Begin your hike from Chaliki central square and descend towards the traditional stone bridge. You should come across two dirt roads; take the right one and walk parallel to the river, keeping the last row of houses on your right. Head straight without turning, ignoring all the other roads, until you find a metal bridge taking you to a spring. It is recommended to fill your bottles at this point, as the next springs are on much higher ground. Return to the dirt road and look for the red waymarks, which are easy to spot. Following them when they leave the road will save you both time and effort. The second time you exit from the trail, you will reach a small plateau with high peaks visible on your left.The dirt road begins to descend, but you must look for the path again, marked by red marks and crains. Initially it goes parallel to the road, but then it starts to ascend through a fir forest. At some point you will come across a stream; cross it and head towards the height on the opposite side. Continue to the right, and high peaks should start to appear before you. You will then cross the road one last time.
The alpine section begins here; the terrain is rocky and caution must be exercised if you attempt the climb after snowfall, since holes are often hidden under snow. In the summer, the absence of shade may be an issue. As you continue your hike- always following the marks and crains-, the peak will appear on your right. The inclination is relatively mild and the trail takes you to the opposite ridge, before ascending to the right until the trigonometrical point.
