More than 3,000-feet high, Mount Zas is the tallest peak in the Cyclades. Legend also says Zeus was born in a cave on the slopes. Zas is the highest mountain in the Cyclades and when the atmosphere is clear, it has amazing views and they even say that from there you can see Asia Minor. The bottom of the mountain is in the village of ¨Filoti¨ and it is a fairly easy route of about 40 minutes. I would advise if you choose this activity, to go either very early in the morning to see the sunrise, or just before sunset to enjoy the view. Don't forget to wear comfortable clothes and suitable walking shoes, take water with you and wear sunscreen Hikers on a mission to find the best views on the island should head straight for the top of this mountain. Two paths wind up, but the more strenuous one passes by the famous Zeus cave, which you can enter. It’s a 3-mile round-trip trek, but it only takes about 30 minutes to reach the cave — even from there the panoramas of rolling hills fading into the sea will take your breath away. Get an early start if you visit in summer, as hiking midday under the beating sun of the Greek Islands is miserable. The trailhead at Fontaine d’Aria (an old stone spring-water fountain) is about 30 minutes or so from Naxos town. The other hike up starts at the Agia Marina church a couple of miles past Filoti and about 15 from Chora.

The tallest mountain in the Cyclades and the childhood home of Zeus, as legend would have it, hike the ancient trails up to the 1,003-metre summit and marvel at the views.
