첼모스 - 부라이코스 국립공원 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

아름다운 인공 호수입니다.

림니 독사(그리스어로 '독사 호수')는 코린토스 지역의 인공 호수입니다. 해발 약 900미터에 위치하며 아르카이아 페네오스 마을 근처에 있고, 지리아와 헬모스 산의 울창한 숲으로 둘러싸여 있습니다. 이 호수는 종종 '그리스 알프스'라고 불리는 이 지역에서 가장 아름다운 여행지 중 하나로 여겨집니다.

Right by the train station are traditional tavernas, such as the famous "Romance Tavern," which has often served as a backdrop for Greek films. The station is a popular starting point for hikes through the gorge along the railway tracks, especially to Diakopto (approx. 12 km, 3.5-4 hours). Another trail leads up to the Mega Spileo Monastery, founded in the 4th century and built directly into a cliff face. The area is characterized by dense forests of plane trees, chestnut trees, and pines, as well as numerous waterfalls in the gorge.

Zachlorou Station (also known as Mega Spileo) is a prominent station on the historic Diakopto-Kalavryta Railway. It is located in the picturesque village of Kato Zachlorou, nestled within the impressive Vouraikos Gorge. The station primarily serves as access to the famous Mega Spileo Monastery (Great Cave), which can be reached via a 45- to 60-minute hike. The station is part of the 750 mm narrow-gauge rack railway ("Odontotos"), which opened in 1896 and is considered one of the most spectacular railway lines in the Balkans.

There is still enough space to avoid the train.

As long as you're not afraid of heights, it's an absolutely wonderful experience. And don't worry, you'll hear the train coming beforehand. :-)
