About Koronos

A steep village built like an amphitheatre in a green ravine in the mountains of the north. For more than a century its men worked the emery mines in the hills around it, and the old cableway still runs down towards Moutsouna on the east coast. Today it is a quiet place of whitewashed stairs, springs and tavernas under the vines.
