In a country like Greece, there are countless destinations where someone can have a good time. Destinations for every taste, for every season. Destinations that combine natural beauty with fun, food, and everything you want in a few day's getaway. Among these destinations, one of the most timeless is Kalavryta, which many have visited and easily do again. "What should I buy from Kalavryta", a friend who was preparing for the trip to Achaia asked us the other day.

Before we proceed to the answer, let’s explore what one can experience in Kalavryta, a place you won’t forget. It’s not just about visiting; it’s about immersing yourself in the thrill of the night, constantly feeling the rush of adrenaline, and pushing your limits over a weekend. Kalavrita is a getaway that allows you to break free from the monotony of daily life, find tranquility, and rediscover the charm of simplicity and natural beauty. An example of this is the hidden gem, the Cave of the Lakes. This cave, with its 13 miraculous lakes and striking stalactites and stalagmites, truly stands out.

However, the journey into natural beauty commences with the renowned Odontotos railway, which charts the course from Diakopto to Kalavrita. More accurately, it carves a magical path through nature from Diakopto to Kalavrita, traversing the Vouraikos gorge. This journey transports you back in time, offering sights that you will undoubtedly yearn to revisit in the future.

Beyond its natural allure, Kalavryta has additional charms to captivate you. For instance, a visit to the Great Cave, one of Greece’s most significant Orthodox sites, is a must. The Kalavryta Monastery, perched on the rocks in a setting that echoes the grandeur of Meteora and situated approximately 900 meters above the Vouraikos River, leaves an indelible impression on its visitors. This is why many ensure a return visit, immersing themselves in its rich history and, of course, the breathtaking view.

Ski Resort, Hiking, Paragliding

Kalavryta, however, as mentioned above, is not only natural beauty and history. Important, both necessary for any destination, but equally important is being able to do things where you go. And in Kalavryta you can. You have, for example, the choice of the modern ski resort with 12 slopes, a snowboard park, a snow tube park, and various events and parties. If, on the other hand, you don't want to have to deal with the snow, you can choose walking. There are, after all, trails where you can enjoy hiking or even mountaineering if you go to Helmos. And if you don't want snow or walk, you can... fly paragliding.

Any time of the year, whatever your hobby, Kalavryta awaits you. And it won't let you down...

Now, let’s address the initial question, “What should I purchase from Kalavryta?”. The culinary offerings of Kalavryta are diverse and intriguing. Upon your departure from Kalavryta, be sure to acquire handmade pasta and dairy products, with the barrel feta cheese of Kalavryta being a top choice. A cooperative in Kalavryta, with over 60 years of operation, offers a variety of products. Besides PDO feta, you can find dry mizithra and gavriere.

Also, don’t miss out on sausages, honey, rose sugar, tea, oregano, walnuts, and chestnuts. There’s a high chance you’ll find something to your liking!
