Enjoy the silence and calmness of the view. There is a small church near the lake and only a few hundred meters away, you will find a beautiful old monastery, the monastery of St. George.

This was one of the most beautiful places we visited in Greece. It is well worth the time it takes to get there, and it really isn't far from Corinth. We were there in the off season so everything was closed. The aqueduct ruins were fascinating. Don't cheat yourself, make the walk to the Lighthouse. There are so many great views, and you can enjoy exploring the rocks and paths. My daughter's dream was to cliff jump and she did it....more than once!! It was January, the water was cold, but well worth it. On the sunny day we were there, it was not big deal. Just an amazing place to visit, and one we will definitely include when we go back to Greece!!!

Ktima Bairaktaris is located 2 kilometers from the entry of Nemea, just 1 hour from Athens. Under the shadow of the temple of Nemean Zeus, with feeling of respect for the region and responsibility for the conservation of the quality, welcomes the lovers of chosen wine and the selective professionals.

Visited as part of a tour to Nemea with Olive Sea Travel. The tasting was excellent and so informative and we really enjoyed sampling this lovely, modern style of Greek wine - in situ. We toured the facility and then enjoyed an excellent platter of food whilst sampling the wines - perfect.

After listening to the fascinating story of ancient Corinth from our guide, we walked into Kilix Ceramic Crafts just outside the park to see the real stuff!! Such a great experience walking through the store and having George Papamichael and staff show us so many fine examples of pottery and crafts, all handmade by local folks with exquisite painting and firing. What a beautiful store! More like a museum, no pressure to buy, just more of the kind and gentle ways of the people of Greece. We spent a long time looking and asking questions. Bought a gorgeous painted urn and had it shipped home to Alabama. It arrived, well packed! Kudos to the Kilix staff.

Wonderful location, very friendly service, and delicious, affordable wine. What more could you ask for? We visited during Covid and like many tourist areas, the wine region around Nemea has not had many guests and they were not expecting visitors. Nonetheless the host put on a lovely (free) tasting just for my partner and I, and as the kitchen was closed, brought us three delicious varieties of grapes fresh from their vines for us to eat. We sat on the patio looking up at the monastery on the rock and were utterly delighted with our choice. Highly recommended.

Acrocorinth (Greek: Ακροκόρινθος), "Upper Corinth", the acropolis of ancient Corinth, is a monolithic rock overseeing the ancient city of Corinth, Greece. "It is the most impressive of the acropoleis of mainland Greece," in the estimation of George Forrest.[1] Acrocorinth was continuously occupied from archaic times to the early 19th century. Along with Demetrias and Chalcis, the Acrocorinth during the Hellenistic period formed one of the so-called "Fetters of Greece" - three fortresses garrisoned by the Macedonians to secure their control of the Greek city-states. The city's archaic acropolis, already an easily defensible position due to its geomorphology, was further heavily fortified during the Byzantine Empire as it became the seat of the strategos of the thema of Hellas and later of the Peloponnese. It was defended against the Crusaders for three years by Leo Sgouros. Strongly recommended if you like history. Start your day with drinking a lot , I mean a lot of waters.

This was a bucket list item for me due to my studies - and it did not let me down at all. The history and idea of a mans insight behind this feat of engineering and the human spirit is wonderful and to stand and admire it even more so. Even if you are not history mad - it is worth the stop to consider just what went into this canal and the impact that it has had on the region. Of course there is also some cute little souvenier shops, a great cafe with free toilets that are clean and well maintained. There is a little kebab shop to the very right of the main building (looking at it from the car park) dont miss trying a plate of the chicken kebabs, totally delicious....even if you have just stuffed breakfast down they are a must LOL.
