Agios Taxiarchis Waterfall – A Hidden Gem in Achaia
The Agios Taxiarchis Waterfall, also known as the Selinountas River Waterfall, is one of the most breathtaking natural attractions in Achaia, near the village of Ano Vlasia in Kalavryta. According to Pausanias, the river’s waters spring from Mount Erymanthos before flowing into the Corinthian Gulf.
At the end of the gorge, where the river appears to disappear into a cave, you’ll find a double waterfall plunging dramatically into a crystal pool. The mist rising from the cascading water creates a magical atmosphere, with light shimmering through the cave roof and droplets dancing in the air. Beside the falls lies a mysterious cave, believed to hide underground lakes and striking formations that few visitors ever witness.
Adventurous travellers can dive into the refreshing pool at the base of the falls, while others may prefer to admire the scenery, capture stunning photos, and simply soak in the tranquillity of this natural gem.
Steeped in Greek mythology, the site was said to be where Callisto and the nymphs of Artemis bathed, while the god Pan once passed through with his wild, wine-driven entourage. This mythical aura adds even more allure to the already dramatic setting.
Reaching the waterfall requires a short hike of about 10–12 minutes from Ano Vlasia, followed by a descent of roughly 100 steps. Clear signposts in the village guide visitors to the path. The location, just 46 km from Patras, makes it an ideal day trip for nature lovers, hikers, and those seeking an off-the-beaten-path experience in the Peloponnese.
