The classic village-to-beach descent in north Pelion. Two separate historic kalderimia link Zagora with its beach at Horefto, so it can be walked as a loop.
The walk
From Zagora the cobbled path drops through orchards and forest to the long sandy bay of Horefto, with sea views opening as you descend.
Good to know
