This region is called "the narrows of Acheron". Its beauty is divine and it is of particular ecological interest (Natura protected area).
The outlet of the straits is found in the village of Glyki, which can be your starting point if you wish to walk along the river and approach its springs.
Apart from hiking you can do canoe-kayak, go rafting , horse-riding, flying fox, e.c.t
The mouth of the River Acheron is in the village of Ammoudia, 3 km from the Nekromantio oracle. Sandy beach, lovely tavernas along the river and an opportunity to have a small cruise along the river and the cave of Persefoni on the coast.
