Abeliona is a traditional mountain village surrounded by chestnut forests and innumerable natural springs.

Built on the crossroads of three counties, Arcadia, Ilia and Messinia, Abeliona is a traditional mountain village surrounded by chestnut forests and innumerable natural springs. Cobblestone streets and old stone houses, hiding images, sounds and scents from another era, reveal themselves for a moment, before the fresh, mountainous air takes them away. A place that turns simple daily pleasures, into unique experiences that you would want to experience again.
