Ancient Figaleia:
Explore the ruins of an ancient city, from temples and markets to public buildings, that transport you to the daily lives of the ancient inhabitants. The trails around the site connect history with the nature of the area.
Neda Waterfalls:
Discover the unparalleled natural beauty of Neda Gorge. The waterfalls form natural pools, ideal for refreshing dips or moments of relaxation. It is a destination that combines hiking and rejuvenation in nature.
Neda Physical and Geological Museum:
Visit the museum in Nea Figaleia, where interactive exhibits bring the geological history of the area to life. It is an ideal stop for families, offering an educational and entertaining experience for young and old.
Tip: Start early in the morning – because the Temple of Apollo Epicurius will not move, but the sun does not wait! Wear your comfortable shoes, take water and snacks with you, and of course don’t forget your swimsuit and towel – because the natural pools of Neda are the closest thing to… a five-star spa that nature offers!
At the Neda Museum, get ready for an educational experience – but don’t worry, here knowledge is combined with fun. And remember: this excursion is not a marathon.
If you are traveling with children, the museum will excite them.
Happy exploring!
