Faneromeni Castle


PANO KASTRO (UPPER CASTLE)
The Upper Castle, also known as “Faneromenis Castle”, was built from 1207 until 1233, by the Venetian ruler Marino Dandolo. It is located on a stunning mountain plain north of Ormos Korthiou at an altitude of 585 meters. Nowadays, some parts of the walls, as well as Faneromenis church, are preserved. The scenery is magnificent and the view to the eastern Aegean is unique.
Location: Above Kochylos village.
How to get there: Follow the main road from Korthi to Chora (or vice versa) and reach Kochylos village. From there, take the road to the bottom of the hill where the castle is located and then climb 143 stairs to the entrance.

TIS GRIAS TO PIDIMA (“Old Lady's Leap”)
Location: On the southeastern side of the island, on the north part of Ormos Korthiou. 
Special features: Its unique characteristic is a tower-like rock formation emerging from the water. It’s a rather small beach with both sand and pebbles and crystal clear waters. 
How to get there: By car, 10 minutes away from Korthi. However, you won’t avoid taking the last 300 meters on foot, following a downhill path. You can also get there by sea, taking a boat from Korthi.
