OVER THE VILLAGE OF VLASSIA ABOUT 2 KLM
ON THE ROAD TO LECHOURI IS ONE OF THE FEW MOUNTAINS
OF GREECE THAT STILL OFFER AN ENVIROMENT SO VIRGIN
AND UNTOUCHED BY HUMAN ACTIVITY.
THE MOUNTAIN ERYMANTHOS or OLENOS 2.224 m.
HERE ARE THE SPRINGS OF THE RIVERS
PEIROS, ERYMANTHOS AND SELINOUNTAS.
THE RIVER SELINOUNTAS CROSSES A NARROW CANYON OF UNIMAGINNABLE
BEAUTY, CREATING AN ALMOST MYSTICAL LANDSCAPE. WITH WATERFALLS AND NATURAL
POOLS SPREAD BETWEEN WOODED HILL SLOPES, UNDER THE SHADE OF HUGE PLANE-TREES, OAKS, FIR-TREES AND THICK BUSHY VEGETATION.
IT IS AN ALMOST RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE TO TAKE A BATH IN THE CRYSTAL CLEAR WATER OF THE POOLS CREATED BY THE WATERFALL,THE SUMMERTIME OF COURSE NOT KNOW,
UNTIL THE MAY - JUNE THE MOUNTAIN IS COVERED BY SNOW.
