A Stunning Man-Made Gorge! The Magnificent Scenery of the Corinth Canal.

The Corinth Canal, which separates the Peloponnese from mainland Greece, captivates visitors with its astonishing scale and historical background. This man-made gorge, excavated over approximately 6.4 km, is flanked by towering rock walls about 80 meters high on both sides, creating an overwhelming landscape. Looking down from above, you can see small boats passing through the narrow waterway connecting the Aegean Sea and the Ionian Sea, and the sight looks like a model. While the passage of large ships is now limited, it is also possible to experience a cruise through the canal on a tourist boat tour. Conceived in ancient times and completed in the 19th century, this canal is a symbol of Greek civil engineering. It is a highlight of Peloponnese tourism, where you can enjoy both history and spectacular views!
