The Peloponnese: Tsivlou lake

in #travel7 years ago

Tsivlou is one of the most beautiful lakes I've seen in Greece. Magically fresh colours and tranquil environment.

Tsivlou lake is in Achaia region in Peloponnese peninsula. It is a natural lake at the altitude of 800 meters, which was formed when a landslide blocked the river in 1913. The blue green water of the lake and the unspoilt nature around it makes a picturesque landscape.

I visited Tsivlou lake as part of my weekend trip to Northern Peloponnese in May two years ago. To get there I drove from Athens towards Patras and after reaching the Aigeira village, I turned to the side road going through the mountains towards the lake. The route itself is enjoyable as the road goes through the mountains. It is a perfect place for a peaceful day, refreshing swim or picnic!

The Peloponnese peninsula has diverse nature and is full of interesting places to explore. Tsivlou lake was one of my favourite finds but I will share more in my upcoming posts.
