Description:

We will begin our adventure at the Nekromanteion of Acheron, an ancient temple where people in ancient times communicated with the dead to learn about their future. We will explore this fascinating site before heading to the springs of the Acheron river. We will have plenty of time to wander through the stunning river gorge, swim in the crystal clear waters, and take in the breathtaking surroundings.

Our journey then takes us to the charming town of Souli, where we will relax and enjoy a coffee or soft drink at the famous Souli mills. From there, we will embark on a 30-minute hike to the castle of Kiafa. Along the way, we will learn about the area’s rich history, including the heroic resistance of Souli against the Ottomans.
