This is the completion of a three-level signposting of the trail network.<br \/>\nThe signs contain the &#8216;identity&#8217; of each route. They provide a lot of information, but have a simple and minimal design and small size, so that they work well with space, without visual disturbance.<\/p>\n<p>The signs are divided into 4 parts. At the top is the title and code of the route, marked \u2018Green Flag Trails\u2019, on the three certified routes of the network. In the central part the route map is displayed, which is a product of a specific cartographic edit. Particular emphasis was placed on the names of points of interest, even the lesser known ones, such as the watermills of Karavas. Further down are the key data of the routes, such as distance and degree of difficulty, which are fully harmonised with the Green Flag Trails certification standards. Also QR codes can help users download the route files on their mobile phones. Finally, at the bottom of the sign, all partners, contributors and supporters of the programme are mentioned, and the GNTO Greek National Tourist Organisation (\u0395\u039f\u03a4) logo is displayed.<\/p>\n<p>The activity was funded by the Mediterranean Institute for Nature and Anthropos (MedINA) and the Municipality of Kythera and was implemented in collaboration with the Kytherean Foundation for Culture and Development (KIPA). The signs were developed and placed by the Social Co-operative Entreprise \u2018Paths of Greece\u2019. The maps were edited by Staridas Geography, while the graphic design was done by Instinct Design.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2520\" src=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Kythera-Sign-explanation-EN.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"688\" height=\"487\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Kythera-Sign-explanation-EN.png 1485w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Kythera-Sign-explanation-EN-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Kythera-Sign-explanation-EN-1024x725.png 1024w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Kythera-Sign-explanation-EN-768x544.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 688px) 100vw, 688px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2524\" src=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240480282-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"612\" height=\"816\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240480282-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240480282-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240480282-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240480282-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240480282-1536x2048.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2526\" src=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240010883-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"607\" height=\"798\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240010883-scaled.jpg 1947w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240010883-228x300.jpg 228w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240010883-779x1024.jpg 779w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240010883-768x1010.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240010883-1168x1536.jpg 1168w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1623240010883-1558x2048.jpg 1558w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 607px) 100vw, 607px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2528\" src=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762994690-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"828\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762994690-scaled.jpg 1916w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762994690-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762994690-766x1024.jpg 766w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762994690-768x1026.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762994690-1149x1536.jpg 1149w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762994690-1532x2048.jpg 1532w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2530\" src=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762129181-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"615\" height=\"822\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762129181-scaled.jpg 1915w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762129181-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762129181-766x1024.jpg 766w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762129181-768x1027.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762129181-1149x1536.jpg 1149w, https:\/\/kipa-foundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1620762129181-1532x2048.jpg 1532w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p aria-level=\"1\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u03a0\u0395\u03a1\u0399\u03a3\u03a3\u039f\u03a4\u0395\u03a1\u0395\u03a3 \u03a0\u039b\u0397\u03a1\u039f\u03a6\u039f\u03a1\u0399\u0395\u03a3 &amp; \u03a3\u03a5\u039d\u0394\u0395\u03a3\u039c\u039f\u0399<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kythera<\/span><\/b><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Trails<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">: Kythera Trails is the official network of trails of Kythera, with 14 routes with a length of 100 km.
