The trail is quite hard to find. Loads of spiders and lizards and grass covers most of the ruins. Also there is a good portion of road where you can barely fit a car.

Incredibly moving - whether or not the ruins are indeed those of Odysseus' palace (which seems to be still disputed). You just walk in, no entrance fees, and all of a sudden you are swallowed up in ancient history. The energy of this place is powerful!

At the time of our visit, Sunday noon, both gates to the archaeological site were open. However there is no information anywhere regarding the ruins, I assume because there is no consensus yet in the scientific community. The views over the northern part of Ithaca are impressive. Some buildings appear to be mich more recent, medieval perhaps. Use your imagination and picture Penelope somewhere waiting for her husband.

Getting into the palace was a struggle and slightly confusing. The gate connected to the 6 foot tall fence is locked. The easiest entrance is before you get to the fence area. There is a thin wooden stick sign and some steps, what take you up to a hole in the fence.
