Apresentação geral

Olympia and Elis

Western Peloponnese around the sanctuary of Olympia, with agricultural plains, hills, major museum and nearby Ionian beaches.

To understand what Olympia and Elide are, you must look at the side of Ancient Olympia, Archaeological Museum and Katakolo. These places provide a territory marked by heritage, countryside and coastline and allow you to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.

Ver tudo

For a stay of 1 to 3 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: exposed site and cruise tours. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Town or village

Olympie antique

4,6 / 5· Hidengo2 to 4 hrs walking · estimate

Olympie antique Discovers itself in a gentle valley of pines and cypresses, between ruined temples, palaces, stadiums and altars. The site speaks less by erect monuments than by the spaces that it allows to imagine: trainings, processions, contests and crowds gathered around the sanctuary of Zeus.

Museu

archéologique Museum

4,5 / 5· Hidengo1 to 3 hrs on site · estimate

Archaeological museum of the city Olympie gives life to the nearby ruins thanks to the frontons of the temple of Zeus, to the Hermes of Praxitele and to the objects related to the games. It is better to see it with the site, because the sculptures place faces, gestures and narratives in the stones scattered outside.

Town or village

Katakolo

4,4 / 5· Hidengo2 to 4 hrs walking · estimate

Katakolo is a small Ionian port often driven by cruises, with docks, shops, taverns and nearby beaches. Beyond its role of access to Olympie, it offers a simple maritime break: boats, smell of salt, low hills and sunsets on the west of Peloponnese.
