The route follows the eastern slopes above the Acheron and visits the fourth Souliot village, the abandoned Avariko, with the few ruined houses where 60 families once lived. Without major elevation changes, it passes picturesque scenery beside streams in a lush environment, ending at the village of Sykia (Sertziana).
