There are two routes you can choose from for your trip to Klafsi from Athens. The first one is to follow the highway E75 and enjoy a more comfortable and shorter trip. If you choose this route, it is worth paying a visit at Thermopyles, the historic landmark where the legendary Leonidas and the Spartans defeated hundreds of Persians. The second option is to take a more scenic route, travel through local roads and explore Arachova, the famous archaeological site of Delphi, and the beautiful city of Nafpaktos. Please keep in mind that this route is definitely longer and thus more tiring, therefore it would be better to add an overnight stay. Enjoy!
