The "second Parthenon" one of the most important and well-preserved temples of antiquity located 48 km north of Kyparissia emerges through Krestena at an altitude of 1,130 feet, lost in the wilderness.

We arrive at Kalamata and then cross the region of Mani; the land of sea, rocks and canyons. Mani is nature’s way to fascinate. Towers, Byzantine churches, magnificent beaches bathed in Mediterranean light

Driving through Megalopolis, where the large hydroelectric plants of PPC are established, we arrive at the traditional Karytaina, 5km away. We continue our drive for 10 more km until we reach the village of Dimitsana.

Filiatra town is located 10 km away from the hotel. The town counts 8500 inhabitants and has a long tradition of horticulture; 55 years ago during the “peak period” the city even had an Auction House for agricultural products.

Walk around the archaeological site and visit the two museums. There is no need to say much about this place, since it is recognized as the most important archaeological site of our country, where the first Olympic Games took place. On your way back to the hotel you can stop and walk by the beautiful lake of Kaiaphas.

The Ancient town of Messene is one of the major cities of Greece in the Hellenistic and Roman times and used to be the capital of ancient Messinia for seven consecutive centuries; it is located 45 km away from Kyparissia, through Meligala.

We cross Kalamata ascending and descending the Mountain of Taygetos, the highest mountain in the Peloponnese, also called the “Serniko Vouno” [the Male Mountain]. An amazing sequence of scenery.
