Hi Phil, Zaranokefala based on everyones gps measurements is over 2100m.Most likely just above or just below 2130m.Im sure that in next editions of the Anavasi maps which Simon helps with, the correct height will be stated.As far as the snow there is still a lot on all the northern faces and peaks a...

Hi once more, Yes of course it was the military geographical service that calculated the peaks height,their logo is imprinted on top of all the concrete pillars on top of the peaks.I visited the website and they have an online map.Its not as fast or as clear as google maps for example but has plenty...

As has been said to me and is apparent Gigilos is NOT above 2000m. although it is stated in every map of been 2080m. high. The 2nd photo shows the locations and names...

hi simon, congratulations for the hard work of improving/redoing the waypoints from livada to koutala seli.it surely will be helpful for many hikers.i always had trouble understanding why the e4 route goes half way up fanari and then traverses downwards on scree to koutala seli.so i thought of looki...
