Monemvasia Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

Wonderful walk out on the narrow trail to the extreme eastern point of the peninsula, it continues a little past the old lighthouse.

Rocky Climbing Path to the Lighthouse

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

The northern side climbing path of the peninsula starts at the lighthouse. The scenery and views are amazing, but do it only at good weather, it may be very slippery ☠️👹

Main gate into the historic walled lower city on the strategic peninsula; from here everything happens on foot. No cars or motorized vehicles can enter, and even bikes are not convenient on the many stairs.

Monemvasia Trail

Highlight • Trail

Leave the narrow paved road with the busy tourist busses below and use the pedestrian trail running a little higher above. It is quieter and has a better view

The attractive central square is surrounded by historic churches and museums. View of the ocean across the ramparts to the south and the walled upper town towering to the North.

Monemvasia Castle

Highlight • Castle

The magic of this small town in the off-season and without hundreds of Crusaders temporarily calling at it is indescribable
