Location information

SPILIOTAKIS (Settlement) LERNA
  Spiliotaki - sixteen kilometers away from Argos - is a flat area with pastures, fertile hills and fields, cultivated with citrus and apricot trees. Situated next to the railway line, it is a wonderful 'balcony' on the cove of the Argolic gulf.
  Only one kilometre away from Spiliotaki, archeologists have found a number of pots, statuettes and other significant relics of the ancient town of Eleous.
  Next to the gully and the railway line there are some small and beautiful plane trees. They used to be huge once, ready to stop the rapid streams of the river. Today, river Xavrias has the power to destroy trees and cover the area with mud.
