Feneos gives its name to an entire mountain valley in western Corinthia — one of the most striking landscapes in the Peloponnese and utterly unlike the rest of the region.
What is here
- Lake Doxa: the reservoir with the chapel of Agios Fanourios on its peninsula.
- Ancient Feneos and the archaeological museum holding the finds from the Asklepieion.
- The sinkhole of Feneos, which swallows the water of the plateau.
- Fir forests and paths towards Ziria and Dourdouvana.
Its character
Mountain villages, stock-raising, cool summers and snow in winter. The valley is closed, with no natural outflow to the sea — hence the sinkholes.
Practical notes
- About 80 km from Corinth; reached from Xylokastro or Kiato.
- Check weather and road conditions in winter.
