Description

A particular tourist attraction at Peania is the Koutoúki stalactitic cave on the east side of Hymettos, discovered in 1926, which can be reached from the village on an asphalted road. The cave, 500m/1,640ft above sea level, has an area of 3,800 sq. m/40,000 sq. ft and is indirectly lit.

This cave is 4km from the village of Peania in the Messogia district of Attica.

The cave consists of one main cavern with several patricians festooned with fine, multi-colored groupings of stalagmites and columns. Artistically concealed artificial lighting in this cave is considered to be among some of the best in the world.
