The village of Old Perithia (and the now abandoned village of Sinies) can be seen from Pantokrator and with its 130 house and 8 churches Old Perithia is said to sit at the foot of Pantokrator, 'The Almighty.' The walk to Pantokrator is also part of The Corfu Trail, an established walking guide around the island of Corfu, although they fail to maintain the paths, so walks such as Perithia to Mt. A private bathroom with shower is standard. Simply furnished and fitted with tiled flooring, each unit includes a kitchenette with fridge, electric kettle and cooking hobs for light meals. The village of Old Perithia dates back to the 14th century and the 'Perithians' helped build the original monastery using local wood and limestone. The studios enjoy garden or mountain views from their terrace or balcony. If you choose to walk, one of the best places to start is in Old Perithia, Corfu's oldest village, where it takes approximately 2 hours round trip.

To get to the peak, you can either drive to Mount Pantokrator up a series of windy roads from the coast, or walk to the top. It is dedicated to the transfiguration of Christ. The current church on the site dates from around 1689, and the current facade was built during the 19th century. The first monastery on the site was Angevin, built in 1347 but then destroyed sometime around 1537. At the top there is a café for tourists, a telecommunications station, whose largest tower stands directly over a well, and a monastery. On particularly clear days it is also possible to see Italy despite it being around 130 km away. At the summit, the whole of Corfu can be seen, as well as Albania which lies a short distance from the island.
At 906 m, it is the highest mountain on the island. Mount Pantokrator (sometimes Pantocrator, Pantōkrator, Παντοκράτωρ in Greek) is a mountain located in north-eastern Corfu.
