Starting from Lake Doxa, then, we start our hiking trip, on the slope of Durduvana in the direction of the Hunter's Col, on a path full of firs, black pines, oaks, chestnuts and many kinds of mushrooms. In many parts of the route we will enjoy the view of the lake from above. We arrive at the Gogaki sheepfold where we will make an enjoyable break overlooking Lake Doxa and Megali Ziria in Corinth.

Continuing our course, the route brings us to the picturesque monastery of Agios Georgios, which was founded in the 14th century!
