Just driven the 35 miles from Kalamata to Mystras. One of the most exhilarating and scenic routes I have ever done including the Alps, High Atlas and Pyrenees. Anyone else done it? Not terribly high 4.5k ft. Max. Road a bit iffy in places too. Didn’t expect that in the Peloponnese!

Respect, Dick!!!

I've just followed the route you drove on GoogleMaps using the "Explore" option, and the photos show the road to be every bit as beautiful as you describe.

It's got to be one to put on the bucket list. I wonder if you'll start a blog, with stopping places, so that others can follow ..............

hi,

another good one! .. neo italia to gyfio, only way to get round, over the top, i dont do bends or high bits, and when the eagles were below us, i thought it had gone behond a joke, and all the oh was saying, look at the view,look at the view, all i,m saying, how much further, and please watch the road, only i dont think i was that polite,

but to br honest it was one of our more scenic drives, and right at the top,you drive through a village,that you wouldent think you could get a mini through, and right through the square, with people sat drinking coffee as you manovere through. but one more memory,

mags

arent we lucky......
