Activity Description

Drakotrypia: A Mysterious Hideout of Mainalo

A Breathtaking Route

Hidden in the depths of Mainalo, Drakotrypia is a true gem for nature and adventure lovers. This unexplored cave, carved by the hands of nature, promises a unique and exciting experience. It is a small cave with black stalactites and stalagmites, starring the golden moss (Luminous Moss) on its ceiling, which fluoresce depending on the perspective from which we see them.

A journey through time

The route to Drakotrypia is an adventure in itself. As we walk through a dense fir forest and pass by rock formations, we feel as if we are traveling back in time. The nature is untouched, the air is clean and the silence is interrupted only by the chirping of birds and the sound of our footsteps.

A mysterious cave

Arriving at the entrance of Drakotrypia, you will be amazed by the grandeur of the landscape. High rocks and deep caves create an atmosphere of mystery and wonder. The cave is also mentioned by Pausanias as the residence of the goddess Rhea. After touring the cave and taking the necessary breaths, we begin our return to Vytina where we will stay for food, coffee and dessert!
