Done with the planning. I have a semester break in mid-April so will do my 4-segment run (rt IST - ATH - SKG) and have booked an AirB&B in the town (Litochoro). Decided to rent a SUV fof 2 days @ SKG to take care of getting around to the villages, etc.
I suspect the region will be "quieter" than in June. Hope the weather will be clear. Looking forward to some nice Greek foods
Now June is free for some long-distance bicycle touring in Australia.
