High over Kavala a big white cross can be seen from everywhere in the town. Its a very nice place to go and you have a fantastic view over Kavala and the coast line, the Pangaion Mountain and the Delta of the river Nestos. Although you can reach the point only on mud roads and its not signposted its definitively worth to go there, especially in late afternoon, when the sun is not burning hot anymore. Coming from Kavala center turn right opposite of Ag.Silas Monastery (at a bus station shortly before the motorway access towards Xanthi) and follow the paved road uphill 1,5km until you reach a little church and a hut with parking and grill place (turn left shortly before the paved road ends, signposted as FOK). From here you can make a nice 2,5 km walk to the cross. Its also possible to go by car but the path is not paved and needs careful driving if you don't have a 4WD car.
