Pyrgos village and castle
Pyrgos, Greece
Pyrgos offers a rewarding walk through lanes, traditional houses and the remains of its fortified settlement. The village climbs towards its Kasteli, with views opening as you ascend and places to pause around the main square below. Choose an unhurried morning or late afternoon to explore its architecture and small cultural stops. Wear comfortable shoes for the steps and avoid treating the village simply as another sunset platform; its appeal lies in the details along the way.
