Discover the Wonders of Water at the Open Air Hydrokinesis Museum

Getting There

• Walking

  From the center of Olympia, start at the Ancient Olympia archaeological site. Head east on Leoforos I. K. Kourouklis toward Arachthou Street. After about 500 meters, you will reach the junction with the main road, where you will turn left onto the main road (Leoforos Archeas Olympias). Continue walking straight for about 1.5 kilometers until you reach the intersection with the road leading to Dimitsana. Look for signs indicating 'Dimitsana' and follow the pedestrian path. It is approximately a 30-minute walk from the archaeological site.

• Walking

  Once you reach the intersection for Dimitsana, follow the signs directing you toward the village. After approximately 1 kilometer, you will reach a bus stop. If you wish to take a bus, you can check the local bus schedule at this stop. However, if you continue walking, follow the road signs to Dimitsana and the Hydrokinesis Museum, which is about 4 kilometers from this point. The walk will take roughly an hour.

• Bicycle

  If you prefer cycling, you can rent a bicycle from a local shop in Olympia. Start at the center, head east on Leoforos I. K. Kourouklis, and follow the same route as indicated for walking. The cycling route will take about 20 minutes to reach the Dimitsana intersection, and from there, continue towards the village of Dimitsana. Expect a total cycling time of approximately 1 hour to reach the Open air Hydrokinesis Museum.

• Public Transport

  If you decide to take public transport, you can catch a local bus from Olympia to Dimitsana. Head to the nearest bus station, located a short walk from the archaeological site. Buses typically run every hour, so check the schedule posted at the station. The bus ride will take about 30 minutes. Once you arrive in Dimitsana, follow the signs to the Hydrokinesis Museum, which is approximately a 15-minute walk from the bus stop.
