One of our long distance sightseeing trips on the scooter today took us around the Lousios gorge.
This gorge at its deepest point is 300 meters deep and 5 km long and is one of the most impressive in Greece. It is scattered with Monasteries hanging precariously from cliff faces and perched on rocky pinnacles.
Distant shot of Moni Agiou Ioannou Prodromou monastery.
Lovely lanes taken over by the broom bushes, luckily not wide enough for tourist coaches.
In fact we hardly met any vehicles all day . Great !
Monastery Filosofou.
Aimyalon monastery.
Dimitsana village.
Karytaina castle.
Another great day out if a little saddle sore afterwards.
Also had our first rain shower on our way back.
