Mt. Taygetos shadows Sparta and has the highest peak in Peloponnese. The curiously pyramidical (is that a word?) shaped peak is called Prophetas Elias and there is an "open-air" church at the very top. My Dad, sister and I hiked up to it summer of '96? I think. It took like 2-3 hrs up and then the same down. And was a mildly arduous workout but totally WORTH IT! I will do it again with any interested parties.
(At the peak my family has a marble icon with my great-great-grandfather's name engraved on it.)
