Before the gates of Olympia. The small port town of Katakolon awaits you in the north-west of the Greek peninsula of Peloponnese. It is considered the ideal starting point for a trip to nearby Olympia. The first Olympic Games were held here, in the most beautiful and most important archaeological site in Greece, in 776 BC. Let yourself be overwhelmed by the Olympic spirit that is still inherent in this place.
