Activity Description

In the heart of winter we hike and end our activity with a bath in the thermal springs of Thermopylae.

The Railway Trail dates back to the end of the 19th century, when the Kato Tithorea – Lianokladi railway line was built, specifically the section between Asopos and Trachina stations. The path was built for the transport of materials and animal workers alongside the railway line, which is why it is still known today as "The Railway Trail".

Tunnels, bridges, abandoned stations, gorges, waters and endless images from nature follow us along the entire route.

The program starts on Sunday morning from Syntagma with the departure of the bus bound for a small traditional settlement in Fthiotida where our path begins.

There we will start our hike and follow the old path (12 km) to a historic and well-known train stop during the interwar period.

The path throughout the hike offers beautiful images and a panoramic view of the area.

Upon completion of the activity, those who wish will go for a relaxing bath in the thermal baths of Thermopylae.

Food and coffee afterwards for everyone in Kamena Vourla and return to Athens.
