The river was called Helikonas but the Pierides Muses, Mainades, wanted to wash their hands in the clear water to atone for sin, the river was stained with Orpheus' blood and since then it was named "Vafiras" by what was painted or "Orlias" by the cry of Orpheus. It's the waterfall of St. John's. Daughter with special beauty, the Byzantine monastery of the Agia Triada the old Vrontos with the post-Byzantine church, and the panoramic view to Katerini and Thermaikos Bay.
