Project Description
Τ1 : Chora - Xompourgo - Mountados - Chora
13.1km | 4h20′ | 3/5 | Yes |

Trail T1 begins from Chora and it successively passes through some of the most popular sights of the island of Tinos, such as the Holy Monastery of Virgin Mary Evangelistria, Poles (the capital of the island in antiquity), Exombourgo (the capital in Medieval times). The return trip to the Chora crosses the villages of Karia and Mountados (where the connection with the Holy Monastery of Kehrovounio is a possibility). The trail encircles the Dam of Vaketa and the surrounding rural area, traverses Chora’s “industrial area” and after a stroll through the scenic lanes of the settlement it arrives again at the “platform” point.
