One day a decided to take a trip with my motor bike to the farm-monastery of Ágios Ioánnis and the waterfall with pools just bellow the monastery. It's about a two-hour walk in one direction, if you prefer walking.

 

First you follow a dirt road beginning in Skala from the sixth or seventh windmill, then turn left at the fork. After a while you are passing another path going right to the monastery Panagias Flevariotissas. Carry on above Arménochori and the little farming village of Messariá, before turning left at a pass. After a while the terraced orchards of the monastery come into view.

I found it difficult to reach the waterfalls bellow; didn't know exactly where to clime down. But after half an hour of looking around and trying some different alternatives, I managed to get down to the waterfalls and pools bellow. It was very nice and refreshing to take a bath in the pools, in fact I stayed there fore a couple of hours, letting the sun caress my body while laying on a rock.
