The 5th «Gerania Mountain Race» of 22 km long &

The route of «Gerania Mountain Race» is commonly accepted as one of Greece's most unique tours, and this year there are changes and improvements to make it even more attractive and enjoyable for athletes.
The starting point of the route is the Loutraki Coastal Park. The route, after leaving the city, moves on a new beautiful path that enters the forested range of the mountain.
Then, it crosses the whole ridge with the fir forest and descends with a spectacular view, which ends again at the Beach Park. The combination of the mountain and the sea on this route is unique in Greece. The positive altitude is 1380m.
The 10km route has a positive altitude of 340 meters, a gentle slope and the trail moves on its first and uphill part, on an old deserted road with great views.
The first 1,700 meters and 400 meters at the end are on asphalt.
Both routes run on well-written paths while the beauty of the alternating landscapes is unique and the panoramic view will relax every athlete.
The center of concentration is the Loutraki Thermal Spa.

An explosive synthesis of more than 140 actors under the baguette of our Band Master Pelopidas Mavropoulos who managed to transform the Carmen opera into a Flamenco dance performance.
Danza Flamenca Grupo by Vassilis Skepetaris, the Corinth Music School choir, classical singers, flamenco musicians and our unique Loutraki Band were combined in a super spectacle.
Vassilis Skepetaris, an outstanding dancer from Loutraki, has highlighted aspects of his multifaceted talent, illustrating and exemplary performance and interpreting the role of Don José on stage with much passion and expressiveness.
The unprecedented response of the audience led to the Sold Out event four days before it took place!
The cheering of the audience during the performance, as well as the request of many of our fellow citizens who failed to attend the event, will be taken into account the next few days.
