On Saturday, JULY 20th, at 11:45 at night, the team will start with their cars for the Spartis shelter. From there, the team will begin the evening ascent to the highest peak of Taygetos pr.Ilias at 2,407. The full moon will accompany you on this beautiful route that starts from the shelter and goes up to Lakkomata and Gouves, a succession of basin-like sinkholes. The continuation to the top is very impressive, as the route enters Plakes and follows the layers of limestone, which seem to have been formed as a natural cobblestone path. Reaching Portes, the great pass of the ridge, and beginning the final climb to the top, the full majesty of Mount Taygetus gradually unfolds around us, with Chalasmeno Mountain standing out to the west. We pass close by a small chasm and reach the top of Prophet Ilias.
