Very interesting, much more interesting to show us electric bikes than to show us the crater. When will people start giving real information?

Methana Peninsula The Methana Peninsula was formed from the seabed by successive volcanic eruptions that began about 1,000,000 years ago and ended about 250,000 years ago. Then everything was quiet here for thousands of years and the landscape we see today was already formed. However, around 250 BC there was another small eruption. This eruption is mentioned by Pausanias, among others, in his writings. He says that there was a fertile plain that stretched from the present village of Kammeni Chora to the sea in the west. The whole area was covered by lava that accumulated over months and formed the steep mountain that you can see right behind your back. The height of the mountain is about 400 m. It was not a violent eruption. During the last phase, the viscous lava flow died out in the sea in the west. The volcanoes of Methana do not have the typical caldera shape. The lava here was so viscous that it accumulated vertically, forming high, steep mountains. The eruptions here were usually not violent and lasted a long time. In general, every mountain you see in the area is a single eruption. About 30 individual volcanic eruptions are visible on the Methana peninsula. On the summit of Kammeni Chora volcano you will find a crack that probably appeared during the last phase of the eruption, when the rich lava flow reached the sea. From the summit you can follow the lava flow with your eyes all the way to the sea. The sunset here is more beautiful than on Santorini. The lava glows red again in the last light of the setting sun. Methana volcano is active, however we cannot yet predict where and when the next eruption will be. The hike to the summit takes about 25 minutes.

The bathroom has been completely renovated and now has an outdoor pool - the bathhouse itself has been closed since a suffocation accident. All you have to do is press a green button and a pump starts filling the pool for 15 minutes. If you want to bathe longer, simply press the button again. In January 2024 the water had a temperature of around 30 degrees.

The last 500 m footpath up to the volcano are narrow and steep in places, but doable. You don't have to climb, but you should be sure-footed. Not suitable for prams and small children.
