Trachia

TRACHIA (Village) EPIDAVROS
One of the older -if not the oldest- village of our municipality. In the past, Trachea was one of the Turkish communities, which after 1821 when Greece took back their freedom, people from North Greece (Epirotes) came to stay here. The new residents grew up with success in the art of cheese making and soon they flourished. As time passed, they created the tradition of producing cheese products within the area of Argolida. With the finest quality and taste resulting in them now being one of the best producers in Greece.
Today Trachea owns 11 traditional family cheese factories, keeping the secrets they took from their ancestors. Also they grew up the art of making bread following the old traditional recipes and they have 12 bakeries famous for their bread and paximadia. Here you can eat in one of the 8 excellent taverns, with specialty in boiled goat and roast lamb. The people here are very polite and hospitable and hence it is a popular attraction for locals and tourists alike. It is one of the most beautiful stopping points for the travelers on their way towards to Ermioni, Kranidi, Spetses, Poros and many other places.
