Trekking
Follow a 3 to 4-hour route starting a kilometre from the picturesque village of Zarouchla, in the company of the verdant scenery, the altruistic Mt. Helmos and the sun that plays an eternal game of hide-and-seek with the deep shade of the fir, chestnut and walnut trees.
Although some routes are fit for beginners, Trekking Hellas Achaia can take you on a guided tour. Recommended hiking routes:
From Kato Zachlorou to Lake Tsivlou. The length of the route is approximately 15 kilometres and takes about 5 hours.
From Lake Tsivlou to the village of Peristera. The length of the route is 7 kilometres and takes about 2 hours.
From the village of Peristera to Zarouchla, crossing the mountain village of Prophetis Elias. The length of the route is 11.1 kilometres and takes at least 3 hours.
Hikers also love the route in the Vouraikos Gorge, along the course followed by the Cog railway. Downhill hiking takes 6 hours and uphill hiking at least 7.
