Old Navarino Fortress

👍👍 What a stunning place! The steep and uneven path up to the castle is totally worth it. It is a vast ruin, with fantastic views of the bay and the archaeological site. There is also a cave on the way up. The path is very rocky and in places you have to climb using your hands.

👍 Perched high above the bay of Neo Itilo (Νέο Οίτυλο), Kelefas Castle (Κάστρο Κελεφάς) is an Ottoman castle built in the 1670s to control the Inner Mani region of the Peloponnese. The castle is best approached from the south from Stereos (Σταυρός) as this gentle approach is contrasted with the steep...
