Chamitis: 2,067m

Our hike to the peaks begins with the ascent to Hamitis, which stands high at an altitude of 2,067m. The trail starts from the base of the ski resort 3-5 Pigadia and offers us stunning views of green meadows and forests of beeches and firs. As we approach the top, the panoramic view from Hamitis is awe-inspiring, with the vast landscape stretching out before us. On one side the plateau of Kozani and next to Pieria and in the background Mount Olympus. On the other hand, the plain of Naoussa, Vegoritis and Kaimaktsalan!

Tsanaktsis: 2.047m

Tsanaktsis peak, at an altitude of 2,047m, presents a rougher terrain. It is the 2nd highest peak of Vermio after Chamitis.
