This small mountain town in the Achaea region of Greece, Kalavryta sits on the bank of the Vouraikos river at the foot of the Aroania (Chelmos) range and serves as the southern terminus of the Diakopto-Kalavryta rack railway, built by Italian engineers between 1885 and 1895. Despite its modest size, it has a lively café and restaurant scene and several historic churches, with Mount Erymanthos and Mount Chelmos offering mountain terrain in the wider municipality.
