The road train from Solomos Square can take you from Zakynthos, but we walked. Only about a mile and a half, not too steep and well worth it. The church and cafes at the terrace are great, but it's the view that we ultimately want and it's stunning. You could sit for hours and not get tired of it, the whole town laid out below you. It's worth pushing on up the hill for ten minutes and visiting the 14th century Venetian fort. Only 4 euros to get in, a peaceful place with little left of former glories, but a nice walk with shady pines and more fabulous views. There is a way back to town on foot that avoids the roads and traffic and is slightly quicker. Head from the terrace up to the fort for a few yards then bear left on the path that goes downwards. It's well paved but steep on the bottom third, so easier going down.
