Description
(Local Name: Palamídi) The mightiest of Náfplion's fortifications is the stronghold of Palamídi (1711-14). It can be reached from the saddle between the two hills on a flight of 857 steps (partly roofed over) or, less strenuously, on the 3km/2mi long motor road which runs through Prónia. From the top there are magnificent panoramic views of the town and the Argolic Gulf.
