Zacharo

Zacharo occupies the low coastal plain of Elis in the western Peloponnese, a short distance inland from the Ionian Sea. The town stands within an agricultural part of Greece whose broad horizons contrast with the hills rising farther east. Nearby Lake Kaiafas is separated from the sea by dunes and pine woodland, while the Kaiafas thermal springs have long drawn local visitors. Zacharo was seriously affected by the devastating Greek wildfires of 2007, an event that remains part of the area’s recent history. Its coast and inland roads also connect the town with the wider landscapes of Elis, including the region around Ancient Olympia.
