Pano Petali, Sifnos

The settlement of Pano Petali in Sifnos

The balcony of Sifnos

If you're looking for a place with a fantastic view, traditional architecture, and a peaceful, authentic atmosphere, then you must stop by Pano Petali. Its name means "small rocky hill," and that's exactly what it is: a beautiful settlement built on an elevation, offering an unparalleled view of the East!

A route that will enchant you

Pano Petali connects Apollonia with Artemonas, and the best way to explore it is on foot. The cobbled path that links them runs through the settlement, allowing you to experience its authentic beauty—narrow alleyways with whitewashed stones, traditional houses, small courtyards with low stone benches filled with blooming bougainvilleas, and picturesque churches that blend harmoniously with the landscape.

A breathtaking view

The best view can be found at the Church of Agios Ioannis, whose courtyard offers a panoramic scene of the entire center of Sifnos. From here, you can see Kato Petali, while in the distance, the historic Kastro stands proudly. Come early in the morning to enjoy the sunrise, which bathes the entire island in golden hues!

Churches with history

If you love tradition and history, you should visit the church of Agios Antipas (1636). It's not just a beautiful church—during the Greek War of Independence in 1821, it hosted a school founded by Nikolaos Chrysogelos, one of the island’s most significant figures.

Accommodation in a peaceful setting

Pano Petali is ideal for a quiet vacation, as it is close to the center but away from the noise. You will find hotels, rental rooms, and apartments for a relaxing stay with a fantastic view.

Pano Petali is one of the most beautiful spots on the island and is well worth a visit, whether for a morning walk or to enjoy a peaceful evening with a stunning view of all of Sifnos!
