Kalavryta Reviews -General

Kalavryta is a small village but, in my opinion, it is a great choice for vacations, especially during spring or autumn. And that's because the whole area has an unusual natural beauty. So maybe spring is the best time to go, with all the environment green and healthy, not too hot, not too cold season.

Kalavryta has traditional restaurants and places to have a drink or two, but nothing like wild nightlife and clubbing.

The best thing to do, and honestly a must do, while you are there, is the 1 hour trip with the cog rail. The cog rail covers the distance between Kalavryta and Diakofto, a village nearby. The best part is that trip with the cog rail. The train crosses over stunning natural sceneries, with heavy flora, scrambler plants, willow trees, many small rivers and waterfalls. I had no idea there were actually so beautiful places in mainland Greece.

After we made our way back to Kalavryta later in the evening, we learnt that you can actually walk through that area that we saw from the train and that there is a tiny village around the middle of the train route. Not sure if there is a place to eat or actually relax there, or is it just some houses, not idea about the narrow street either, but if that was true, then walking through that place, would be just an magnificent experience!
