Hi everyone.
First holiday in Arillas and we loved it, looking to return next year.
Thanks to Eileen for lending us the walking books.
One walk we did was from Arillas to Paleokastrisa, passing through Agios Georgios, round the cliff pass (fantastic views) to Angelo Castro Castle (may have spelt that wrong). The walk to the castle was a slight mistake I (Jane) was not happy about this as you cannot cross the gully to the other side from the Castle and have to walk all the way back up again. It would have been ok if we had not already been and climbed to the castle in the past. I was allowed 5 minutes of swearing at Dave for this. Then walked to Lakones? Above Paleo and down the donkey track into Paleo.
We were going to book a taxi but the quote from Arillas Travel to bring us back from Paleo was 50 Euros, we therefore paid 26 euros for a day trip that brought us back at 4pm. If anyone else is thinking of doing this I advise swimming gear and fresh clothes as we were quite ripe when we arrived in Paleo (we did take swimwear and a change of clothes).
We had enough time for a late lunch and stroll before being picked up.
Other walks coastal and inland using the book were also excellent but not as far.
Hi to Ref and partner, sorry we missed you Phil we were looking for a man with a bandage on his hand but did not see you.
From Dave & Jane
