Three days is enough for all of Corinthia: antiquity on the first, sea and sanctuaries on the second, mountains and wine on the third. All three days start from Corinth, so there is no need to change where you sleep.
Day 1 — The ancient city and the Isthmus
- Ancient Corinth in the morning, while there is still shade.
- Climb Acrocorinth — from up there you understand why the city was built here.
- The Ancient Harbour of Lechaion and the Diolkos, its two harbours.
- The Canal and Isthmia with its Sanctuary of Poseidon.
Day 2 — The Perachora peninsula
- Morning in Loutraki, then up to the Monastery of Osios Patapios for the view.
- Perachora and the Heraion at the tip of the headland.
- A swim in Lake Vouliagmeni and sunset at Melagavi lighthouse.
Day 3 — Mountain and vineyard
- Morning in Nemea: the archaeological site, the stadium and a winery.
- Midday at Stymphalia: the lake, Zaraka Monastery and the Environment Museum.
- Afternoon in Trikala, at the foot of Ziria.
Where to stay
Loutraki for facilities, Xylokastro for a quiet beach, Trikala if you want to wake up on the mountain.
