STAVROPIGIO CIRCULAR

Stavropigio Circular Walk Thursday 26th September

Another beautiful sunny day here in the Mani. Which saw 28 of us head out of Stoupa and travel to the village of Stavropigio. The walk started in the centre and head for Zaranta Castle to enjoy some stunning views. After the climb up to the castle and back down saw us reach the village of Malta. our next stop was a monastery but there was nobody home. We carried on and eventually arrived in the older part of Stavropigio where we came up on a couple treading their crop of grapes (see pictures). We then returned to the village Kafenion for a cold beer and lunch. Thank you to everyone especially those who helped with transport.
