Summary of route

From Gerakari the E4 goes on to Elenes and Nefs Amari. Then, it crosses Opsigias, Petrohori, Vizari and Fourfouras. From there, it climbs up to Psiloreitis, via a provincial road (up to 760 m) and then via a path, until it ends up to the mountaineering shelter at the site of Toumpotos Prinos. In its biggest part, the route crosses a verdurous landscape which ends up in an oak forest.
