From Kallikratis (1), we follow the road in a south-easterly direction, initially passing through a small dry valley. After about 2,5 km we come to a path branching off to the right (2) which leads to the Myriokefala village.

At this point, the western part of the Prefecture of Rethymnon can be seen towards the east, in the distance.

We follow the left-hand branch of the road which winds on the slope, seeing a valley surrounded by hills, located south-east of Asi Gonia, below, ahead of us.
