Sifnos: Kamares-Mavri Spilia-Panagia Toso Nero

This hike is a nice alternative for the hike from Apollonía to the Panagía Tóso Neró. The view on the bay of Kamáres and surroundings is magnificent and the descend to the monastery of Panagía Tóso Neró is quite an experience. It is possible to go further down to the rocky beach of Vlási, underneath the Panagía Tóso Neró.
When climbing up from Kamáres, to the trail coming from Agios Elefthérios, the path used to be very difficult to find. In 2008, however, the path was made passable again, and also marked by means of cairns. In 2011 finally, it was totally cleared and, sometimes, it follows an other trace.
This part of the hike remains very interesting, because you find out how one of the most beautiful kalderímia of the Cycladic isles – what the trail from Kamáres definitely used to be – can be badly damaged as a result of the difficult terrain and landslides.
