Killini

It was one of the Principality of Achaia's major ports. The city was surrounded by a massive fortification wall with bastions and turrets. Killini is connected by ferryboat with Zakinthos.

Six kilometres further north is where the Franks had their castle, the fortress of Hlemoutsi, the most beautiful and best preserved of all the castle in the Peloponnese. It was built in 1220 AC.

A few kilometres beyond Hlemoutsi, are the hot springs of Killini, a well known spa, developed by the G.N.T.O., with organized camping grounds and mineral waters. The waters bubble out at a temperature of 25.5 degrees Centigrade and are recommended for asthma, rheumatic and skin diseases.

The buildings are spread out among pine end eucalyptus trees. A truly tranquil and pleasant spot, a paradise for all.
