Lighthouse Trail
Exit the Eastern Wall gate to reach Monemvasia Lighthouse, a clean-cut innocuous building erected in the late 19th century. The beacon contains a small museum (free; open daily) about its history; it is also the start of a 2-km (1.2-mile) rocky path that skirts the northern rim of the island (follow the red trail marks) back to the car park next to To Kastro café. It's a testing scramble in parts, and one best avoided on a windy or wet day.
