Acropolis Taverna
If you're driving to Polyrrinia, take the perimeter road at the turn off for the Acropolis Taverna which has lovely views. Behind the taverna there is a path to the left about 100m before the Agios Pateras church which leads to the acropolis. You can do a full circuit around the hill to take in the views but the path can be overgrown.
