Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

Early morning (04:00am) solo jaunt up mount Dikaios, to catch the sunrise. Good conditions, nice trail, lovely breeze once out of the tree line.
1hr 20 mins up with several 5 minute water stops, and a quick blast back down for a total of just under 2hrs 30mins door to door.
Easy navigation in the dark (head torch) due to well way marked trail.

If you are fit and able to do the walk up Mt. Dikeos then it is well worth it for the views, and the sense of achievement.
I am not a regular "outdoors" type and do not a lot of regular walking but I'm also determined and in my early 40's so I was sure this was something within my capabilities. I did have to stop a few times on the way up for a rest but I reached the very top and walked back down without any issue and didn't suffer any after effects the next day. My friend who is fitter and healthier and does more regular walking found this easy and actually did the whole trip wearing flip-flops. So if you are an outdoorsy-type this will be a straight-forward exploration, and for most people, even those who spend more time on the sofa, this is achievable. I would advise that younger children or retirement age people who are not regular outdoorsy should consider with some caution, but people of those ages who do lots of this sort of thing should find it straight-forward.
There is a dirt road from the village of Zia which is about 2.4km long to the bottom of the steeper part of the walk. Those with an off-road suitable vehicle could opt to drive this part to reduce the total walking distance (and time). A regular car could do the same but it's a challenging drive and your car hire company probably wouldn't be very pleased so I can't recommend doing so. This road climbs from around 300m in the village of Zia to 450m from where the footpath starts.
The steeper footpath to the summit is approximately 2km long (although the zigzagging of the path may make it somewhat longer) and climbs approx 400m. The first half of the walk is through pine trees which offer very pleasant shade and a fresh pine fragrance. After the trees there is a short very steep scramble to a lower summit which has very good views. From there the second half of the walk continues on a much gentler grade up to the highest summit where there is a church and a flag. The staff at our appartment said that many locals make the ascent on Sundays to the church so if you opt to do the walk on a Sunday morning you might find it is busier.
We found the path on the way up to be well marked with paint dots and arrows on rocks, although on our way back down we did briefly lose the path near the area that was a bit of a scramble. We quickly recovered and relocated the path however.

Randonnée moyennement facile dans l’ensemble. Ça grimpe fort ! Mais on sait pourquoi quand on arrive au drapeau.
Superbe vue !
Pensez à porter de bonnes chaussures, beaucoup de pierres.

Die Besteigung dieses Berges ist nicht so einfach wie es aussieht. Mit seinen 846m ist der Dikeos Berg doch eine Nummer für sich. Sprich ihr startet immer auf 0m über Meer. Der Wanderweg ist gut ausgeschildert, nicht gerade den Wanderwegen in der Schweiz oder Österreich ebenbürtig aber man findet den Weg. Ich empfehle den Weg vom oberen Dorfplatz über die Steintreppe in Zia um den Einstieg zu finden. Plant ruhig 3-3,5h für diesen Ausflug ein. Der Aufstieg erfordert eine gute Kondition und gutes Schuhwerk. Bitte nicht mit Flip-Flops und Sandalen den Aufstieg wagen. Der Weg ist mit losem Geröll übersät, ihr macht euch keinen Gefallen. Zudem genügend Wasser und eine Windjacke einpacken. Der Aufstieg ist mit mittlerer Kondition zu schaffen, man sollte aber trittsicher sein. Lasst euch beim Aufstieg zeit. Man sieht sehr schöne Ausblicke. Auf dem Gipfel gibts eine Schutzhütte und eine Kapelle. Tragt euch im Gipfelbuch ein (Kapelle) und zündet eine Kerze für eure Lieben an.

Sono partita dal villaggio di Zia e ho camminato per circa 1 ora e 3/4 ad andatura normale, fermandomi ogni tanto. Il primo tratto non ha salite particolari, ma dalla metà del percorso in poi è tutto in salita, specialmente gli ultimi 20 minuti in mezzo alle rocce un po' più complicato, ma affrontabile da tutti. Una parte del percorso è nel bosco, il resto al sole. Bella vista a 360 gradi quando si arriva in cima. Alla croce c'è anche un piccolo riparo e una chiesetta dove lasciare i nostri commenti su un libro.

Well marked mountain hike from Zia (with big free parking) to the top, solid elevation, nice path mostly through the woods, a little bit windy on the top. Amazing view, no water on the way. For all hikers must do on Kos!

Als je van wandelen houdt is dit een must. Wij hebben deze hike in oktober gemaakt en ik zou hem niet met 30 graden willen maken. Het is een redelijke pittige klim van ongeveer 80 min heen en 40 min terug. Op onze dag was het 24 graden onderaan de berg maar boven aan waaide het stevig en was het fijn dat we een vest mee hadden.
Als je bij Zia parkeert en daarna door loopt naar de kerk spreekt de route voor zich. Het stad op de borden en stenen aangegeven welke kant je op moet.
Echt een aanrader want het uitzicht is prachtig.

Wow - what a hike! And you get rewarded with some amazing views.
It took us about 2.5 hours from Zia to the very very top however we stopped a few times on the way up.
We only passed 2 groups of people walking down as we went up so you feel like you have the entire mountain to yourself!
The terrain is uneven, especially at the top so wear decent shoes, and be prepared for how cold it gets once you're out from the tree coverage.
I am super unfit and managed to get up with a couple of stops so it is definitely achievable by anybody.
A 100% must do whilst you are in Kos.

Mount Dikeos is the tallest mountain on Kos at 846 metres high it is an imposing feature on the landscape.
Our first venture on to the mountain was when we drove from Kardamena to the mountain towns of Pyli and Amaniou then finally arriving in Zipari.
It was an experience driving along narrow mountain roads enjoying the rugged contours of the limestone and volcanic landscape of dramatic cliffs and valleys. Totally contrasting with the lush pine forestry and various other trees and bushes.
Another day we drove to the picturesque mountain Town Zia Lagoudi, very popular to see the sunset from here. It was another opportunity for us to enjoy the scenery and explore the delightful town of Zia.
We also drove to see the Asklepieion of Kos which is in located in the lower part of the mountain range.
Our final encounter with Mount Dikeos was when we returned to visit Paleo Pyli (Castle) and Old Pyli more treasures of the mountain.
While driving from Kefalos to Kos Mount Dikeos is a visible companion for a good bit of the journey.

Cyklede de 16 km. fra Psaldi til Zia i 350 m's højde på cykel - og gik så de resterende 5 km. op til bjergets top 846 m over havets overflade. Super fin heldagstur.
