THE RUN

 

Tender Vittles pushing Violet in the pram (hard going when hitting soft sand)

 

Lots of good forest paths

 

Because of the push chair, Tender Vittles returned along the roadway while Rear Entry, Sebastian and Mad Dog took the beach back

 

The beach was crowded with bathers desperate to get in the sun after the 3-months of the corona virus lockdown

Schinias Beach:

Method 1 (easy / scenic / moron / waste of petrol route):-
Go northwards up Kifisias Ave, continue past Kifisia / Erythrea / Ekali for
5km and turn RIGHT at the road signposted to Nea Makri. Keep on this road,
continue past Dionysos and past the German Cemetery. A few km after this you
will reach the Cafeteria PANORAMA at Agios Petros. *Continue right doooooown
the mountain and turn LEFT at the traffic lights at the bottom (opposite the
big church & AB supermarket at Nea Makri junction). Carry on along here for about 7 ks & turn right at the big supermarket onto Leoforos Souliou towards Schinias, then **.

Method 2 (shorter / mensa candidate route):-
Coming from Athens centre, take Leoforos Pendelis which leads you to Pendeli
village. From Pendeli take the road which goes across the mountain to Nea
Makri, at some point this road meets with the PANORAMA Cafeteria at Agios
Petros then * and **.

** After 6 k turn right onto Leoforos Schinias and keep on Leoforos Schinias [don’t turn right at traffic lights just before the coast] until it comes out at the sea i.e. the very end of the road.
