What to expect

A mountain village (called Skoupa until 1953) at about 860 metres on the northern slopes of Mavro Oros, a spur of Mount Kyllini, in green country with running water. It has stone buildings and three churches: Agia Marina, Agios Athanasios of 1690 with an old wooden iconostasis, and Profitis Ilias. The Kallithea–Agios Loukas gorge runs east of the village.
