Hike to the Acrocorinth Fortress, which was inhabited by both Muslims and Christians in the Middle Ages. Mega view from the castle grounds.

The way up to the castle is paved road and therefore not great for hiking. But the view is nice. The castle above was spacious and you could take a nice stroll around. You don't have to pay an entrance fee. We walked down a dirt road.
