Andros Route No 18

VACONI (with Foros cave detour)-VRACHNOU-LIVADIA

Getting familiar with Andros Trail Race 2018 routes, we followed this route with a few official race participants starting from the monastery where we had delicious pastries to get strong!!! The most impressive part of this route was our acquaintance with the local cultural association of the village of Aladinos, that manages the Cave “Foros”, 4.5 – 5 million years old. It was discovered in 1932 and its name probably stems from the missing animals that fell into the deep cave and thus ‘paid the tax to the gods’. Needless to say that we missed eye contact with the athletes quickly!! so we followed our pace and discovered thick vegetation jungle like tunnels that you can see in the photos. The terrain is quite diverse.
Tip – The picturesque village of Vrachnou and the stunning views to Chora for the most part of the journey.
