Ancient Olympia

Take a journey back in time to the origins of the Olympic Games at Zeus’ most famous sanctuary. A day’s visit to the birthplace of the Olympic Games will not suffice, so much is there to absorb, with a scale of ancient history that never ceases to astound

Neda Waterfalls

Feel the magic of the only Greek river “of feminine gender”. According to the Greek Mythology, Neda was a Nymph, a goddess of waters. Walk along the riverbanks, under the shade of huge plane-trees, oaks and thick bushy vegetation, or enter the river of Neda. At some parts the gorge is very narrow and you will have to swim. The river trek ends in a place with natural river pools under a waterfall a real fun paradise for children where they can swim under the spectacular water fall.

Lake Tsivlou

The magnificently bluish-green Tsivlou lake near Akrata lies a good 800 meters above sea level, and it is considered very important for the local ecology and culture. Curiously, the lake was formed in 1913 after landfalls and resulting blockage of the Krathis river.

Strofillia forest/Kalogria beach

Forming an intricate ecosystem alongside the lagoons and Prokopou lake, the Strofilia Forest at Kalogria on the Gulf of Corinth is one of the largest in the Mediterranean. It spreads over 80 kilometres square or 20,000 acres. Cone, pine, myrtle, oak and other trees make up this forest which goes all the way to the coast. This is where the careta careta turtle lays its eggs, beside a natural fish farm. Numerous animal species roam the forest, which is a Ramsar protected area for birds as well.
