Καλλιράχη
One of the larger mountain villages with narrow streets and is not very touristy. Worth seeing is the Chapel Metamorfosi above the place. A 5-km-long dirt road (4WD only) leads to just below the summit. From there you walk about 300 m steeply uphill to the chapel. The view is breathtaking from there. Approximately 300 m before the village turn left into the side street and then turn left again at the parking lot in the village. After about 5 km dirt road you reach the parking lot of the chapel.

The monastery, which is worth a visit, lies between Scala Maries and Maries. Above the monastery is the photogenic Convent Ruin of Stavronikita, which is also worth a visit. A path approximately 400 metres long leads from the monastery car park up to the ruins.
