What I can see

60km west of Athens, at the foot of the Gerania Mountains and on the coast of the Gulf of Corinth, we find the picturesque village of Alepochori. It is located in a beautiful landscape, surrounded by pine trees and has fish taverns and a cute marina. The beach consists of pebbles and some other beaches are only accessible from the sea. The sunset is impressive, as the sun creates interesting colours and disappears behind the Alkyonides islands.

What I can't see

In ancient times, the city of Pages was located here. Today, the permanent residents of Alepochori are just over 200. Many Atheniaνs have holiday houses here; therefore, it is much more crowded during summer months. Alepochori is a favourite nearby destination for many Athenians.
