(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
LivadiaPass-by Only
After approx. 1,5 hour we will arrive in Livadeia, the capital city of the Boeotia regional district. Livadeia lies appox 90 km north-west of Athens
Kryas Livadeia Springs
The most interesting sight in Livadeia is the springs of Krya. The river that flows in this particular place is one of the two in Greece with a female name. This is the river Erkyna, which took its name from the nymph of the same name. The mountain above Livadia is Elikonas, while nearby is the famous Parnassos, which can be seen when approaching the city. A short distance from the springs of Krya, the oracle of Trophonius was located in antiquity, which also served as a precursor for the oracle of Delphi. Inside the river there is a bust of the nymph, a nice find for the visitor to understand the story. The area is quite exploited, while it is suitable for families with children. The trees provide rich shade, there are several benches around and the streets are largely paved. Several small bridges or structures connect the two banks of the river. Small waterfalls, age-old plane trees and watermills frame the landscape, traveling the visitor peacefully to another era.
Mount ParnassusPass-by Only
Mount Parnassus is a mountain towering above Delphi, offering scenic views of the surrounding olive groves and countryside. According to Greek mythology this mountain was sacred to Apollo, the Corycian nymphs, and the home of the Muses.
