Exploring Mountain Gingilos
It was one amazing day in mountain Gingilos.
About 7 am we drove up from Vamos (Bjorn and me) to Xyloskalo , to reach the summit of Gingilos mountain 2040 m altitude.
It was a though hike, taking us after 2 hours to the saddle. Surrounded by mountain goats (Capra aegagrus cretica) , and griffon vultures or bearded vultures (gyps fulvus or gypaetus barbatus) , it's a special scenery there at this dry habitat isolated in the mountain.
From there on, one hour more is needed over spiky rocks ito reach he final summit. There the view is astonishing.
