It is not suitable to visit with kids, but views are spectacular from the tower in middle. If you want to explore you need to wear trousers and trainers as a lot of prickly plants.

Perched high above the bay of Neo Itilo (Νέο Οίτυλο), Kelefas Castle (Κάστρο Κελεφάς) is an Ottoman castle built in the 1670s to control the Inner Mani region of the Peloponnese. The castle is best approached from the south from Stereos (Σταυρός) as this gentle approach is contrasted with the steep ascent/descent from/to Neo Itilo. The castle itself is in poor repair (after being abandoned about 100 years after it was built). You can still see the scale of the castle - although it is in disrepair and there are plenty of loose parts of it lying around amongst the flora. Is it worth going to? In my opinion yes; but don't make a big detour.

Unspoiled ruin with amazing views (and sunset) from the remaining towers. Beware of the thorny bushes and garden gnomes!

Large fortified compound with gives an idea of it's former glory. Unfortunately, there are no information on its history locally available. The inside is mostly overgrown and requires bushwhacking but you can walk on parts of the walls.

Great views. Well worth the hike up if you do it from the main road.

Το καστρο ειναι τελειως παρατημενο, και εχουν μεινει ουσιαστικα μονο τα περιφερειακα τειχη. Μεσα ειναι γεματο βλαστηση, οποτε δεν υπαρχει καν η δυνατοτητα να περιηγηθεις, παρα μονο σε ενα κομματι του τειχους κοντα στον δρομο.
