The region of Aigialia – marvellous green countryside by the sea The region of Aigialia is one of the most beautiful and most interesting of northern Peloponnese. The scenery is a contrast of wonderful beaches in the Corinthian Gulf, fertile plains (citrus trees and olive trees), lush hills and mountains. In this mountainous landscape you will find typical mountain villages, hidden monasteries and forgotten ancient sites. At the foot of the Mount Chelmos (2,340 m above sea level), a popular skiing area of this region, lies the famous town of Kalavryta which is to be reached from the coastal village Diakofto through the Vouraikos Gorge by cog railway.
