Starting from Patsos and its namesake gorge, the route begins heading towards Meronas, a village with views of Psiloritis and the Amari Valley, and continues to Gerakari, a fertile village built near the plateaus of Gious Kambos, Choni Kambos, and Fteres. Next is Kardaki, followed by Neos Amari, a designated traditional settlement that preserves its folk architecture.
Then, the villages of Monastiraki, Petrochori (on the eastern foothills of Mount Samitos, above the Amari Valley), and Fourfouras (built on the western foothills of Psiloritis) are situated.
The Platania Gorge forms above the village of Platania, connecting the southwestern slopes of Psiloritis with the Amari Valley. After that, we find Vistagi, a livestock-rearing village in the area, and at the end of the route is Thronos, located on a hill where the remains of the ancient city of Syvritos have been excavated (Throniani Kefali).
