Moni Panagias Spilianis

About 1.5km northwest of Pythagorio, the road forks right, past traces of an ancient theatre, before reaching this grotto monastery. The walk meanders up through old olive groves; it's a welcome respite from the summer heat and gives clear views to the nearby Turkish coast.
