Cholomon Trail

Polygyros, ChalkidikiOpen in Maps Sunday, 6 June 2027

Forest paths on Cholomontas, the wooded mountain above Polygyros in the middle of Chalkidiki. The 21K climbs 450 m to a refuge with a wide view, runs through fir, pine and oak on old paths and new ones cut by the organisers, and ends with a long zigzag down to the town. The 50K takes a bigger loop over the mountain, past chapels, fountains and the Schismeni Petra viewpoint, before joining the 21K for its last 17 km. There is also a 10K on forest roads.

Distance and climb as the organiser publishes them. sourceBranded 50 km / +2,800 m, with the organisers' split: 38 km path, 10 km dirt road, 2 km asphalt. The line on the map is the trace the organisers attached to their ITRA listing: 54.4 km and +2,140 m here, 54.74 km and +2,335 m by ITRA. Its elevation is smooth, so short steep pitches show less than they are.
