September 23th 2015 we paid a visit to this monastery. In this photo essay I will show you the pictures I took. Here is a plan of monastery and its surroundings:
and on the next satelite picture you see the spots where I took the photos:
Koutloumousiou can be reached from Karyes in a 10 minutes walk. Before leaving Karyes a visit to the bakery is a must.

Karyes: the bakery
Near the monopati to Koutloumousiou: an ‘Athos’ ambulance: I hope you don’t need it!
Leaving Karyes (photo Jitze Bakker)
The gate to Koutloumousiou: the monopati on the right leads to Filotheou (see the light blue pin on the satelite picture above, in the left upper corner).

Soon after the gate this house appears (spot A on the satelite photo above) on your right hand and a little further
on your left hand, this building (spot B).
