Trypi
village: The village of Trypi is placed 9 km to the west of Sparta and belongs to the municipality of Mystras. It can be reached by taking the National Road from Sparta to Kalamata.
Trypi is a small village of almost 300 inhabitants. Its main attraction is the steep ravine of Kaiadas, where the Spartans were said to abandon their weak and deformed infants as well as the criminals, traitors and war prisoners. Kaiadas is a very scenic gorge and may result a bit frightening for those who are aware of this tradition. |
