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.
