Spartounda

It is one of the mountainous villages of Pelineo. It lies just after Fyta, on the road from Katavasi to Kambia and is 44 km from Chios town. 

It is characterized by the natural beauty of the forest surrounding it and the abundant water that springs from the mountainsides. 

It is mainly inhabited by cattle-raisers who elevate mainly goats but also ships that are fed in plain nature at the neighboring grasslands of Pelineo and Amani. 

Spartounda is the start of quite a few exciting natural tracks for the visitors. The track 'Latomio - Tou angelou to Nero - Amithounda - top of mount Pelineo' is of a unique beauty. The top of Mount Pelineo is the highest point of the island, that is 1.297m.
