Fantastic fortress 200m above sea. One of the most intact medieval fortresses of Greece. It begins with the harbour walls to protect the city from attack of the sea. Then rise from east and west. Fantastic views ! Many cisterns inside. A small mosque converted to church, the Vezir mosque. Only 3 euros entrance.

The Castle of Nafpaktos is definitely one of the most beautiful, well-built and well-preserved castles in Greece. It has a very rich history that starts in the period of the Venetian rule, and since then it has changed \hands\ along the years between Greeks, Turks, Venetians, English, pirates etc. The view from the castle is stunning, and is easily reached by the road that exits Nafpaktos (near Nafpaktos Cemetery) and winds up the hill among the beautiful pine trees. The entrance is very cheap, and a visit here is highly recommended. And most importantly, don't miss the Venetian port of Nafpaktos, with the stone lighthouse. A beautiful site with great importance in the Greek history, full of cafes and restaurants around!

Amazing view! Polite waitresses. Unfortunately one of the desserts wasn't good.

Huge castle with a great view! Entry is 3 and the way up is a great hike (about 30 minutes) although you can of course also drive to the top.

Great view from the top. Castle itself is OK. 2 euros per person. Spend 30-60 minutes depending on how often yous top for photos...

Nice walk in this nicely preserved castle. Better if you already know something about the history of the castle, due to lack of explicit signals.
