    • Abeliona Retreat is the ideal place to stimulate your senses and fill up with energy. Built on the mountainside with a view out to the hilly landscape of Arcadia, a few minutes’ drive from the great temple of Apollo Epicurius, the retreat rests in an area that has always been praised not only for its generous natural beauty, but also for giving off a blissful sensation of belongingness. In this blessed, ever-vibrant part of the Peloponnese, man and nature coexist in complete harmony.

Pranayama Asana and lots of Movement involved. All rituals will be held outdoors in nature surrounding the Hotel, a location of tranquility and bliss.

    •  Trekking
    • The chestnut tree forest of Ampelionas is one of the largest and oldest forests in the Peloponnese. The hiker, walks beneath perpetual chestnut trees. The oldest of them, many centuries old, are awe-inspiring with their huge logs and their persistent vitality.

    •  Apollo Epicurius Temple
    • It’s the masterpiece of Iktinos. Made of local limestone, the temple fits in wonderfully with the imposing landscape surrounding it, despite the fact that the tent-covering partially destroys this feeling. The temple was renowned in antiquity for its beauty, for its architectural virtues and also for the magical place in which the Fygals chose to build it. The marble sculptural decoration of the temple, with scenes Centaurs and Amazonons is considered to be the work of the sculptor Paionius. Today it is on display at the British Museum. Plaster copies of the 23 embossment marble slabs can be admired in the Andritsaina Library building.

    •  Neda Waterfalls
    • Neda is a well-kept secret river of Greece, still a hidden gem! When a river is named after a nymph of ancient legend, it usually means that, for centuries now, people have been in awe of its natural beauty, its amazing landscapes and the magnificent waterfalls. A visit to Neda Waterfall and a swim in its magical water is an once in a lifetime experience!

    •  Healthy Meals
    • At the Abeliona Retreat we believe that one’s body is one’s temple. With respect to nutrition, we offer a rich breakfast buffet and menu dishes based on local recipes and pure ingredients. We also provide locally grown fruits, vegetables and herbs, many of which are handpicked from our vegetable garden and greenhouse, just a short time before being served, while the eggs come directly from the property’s grain-fed, free range chickens. Every day, we prepare a variety of local dishes, with appealing choices for vegetarians, health-conscious individuals and meat-eaters alike.
