Nature and history intertwine, laid before your eyes emphatically. Here, you can get a taste of nature by crossing the Vouraikos Gorge and watching the roller coaster climb to an altitude of 750 meters to reach Kalavryta.

It is worth a stop in the history of the Kalavritan Holocaust, a place of remembrance and tribute, while the Cave of the Lakes invites you into its special world.

Welcoming and cosmopolitan, the Ski Centre sets a recreational tone for the town, while sycamore forests, places of natural beauty and religious landmarks, such as the Mega Spileon Monastery, compose an image of completeness and dialogue between the modern and the classical, accompanied by good food and the warmth of hospitality.

Having found its place between the rich margins of past and future, Kalavryta stands proudly as a place that bridges our every need to serve our desires in the here and now.
