North Syros Mountain in Greece is a must-visit for those who love remote, rocky, and barren places. Located just past Ano Syros, the Catholic mountain that overlooks Hermoupolis, North Syros offers marked footpaths that cover the entire island, including its most remote beaches, churches, and settlements. In the northern part of the island, there is a prehistoric settlement and a cave waiting to be discovered. For those who wish to explore this area, it's best to visit during the cooler months or early in the morning when the sun is not too scorching.

Moreover, North Syros Mountain houses a number of exotiko (country) tavernas that offer an authentic Greek dining experience. These tavernas are located seemingly in the middle of nowhere, but it only takes about 15 minutes to get back to Hermoupolis from anywhere on the island. At these tavernas, you can indulge in grilled meats and home-made wine while enjoying live music and traditional Greek dancing. If you're looking for a real adventure, North Syros Mountain in Greece is the perfect destination for you.
