Description |
The Eurotas or Evrotas (Greek: ???????) is the main river of Laconia prefecture and one of the major rivers of the Peloponnese, in Greece. The river's springs are located just northwest of the border between Laconia and the prefecture of Arcadia, at Skortsinos. The river is also fed by underwater springs at Pellana and by tributaries coursing down from Mt. Taygetos and Mt. Parnon, which flank the Eurotas valley to the the west and east, respectively. The river is 82 km long, flowing in a north-south direction and emptying into the Laconian Gulf (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurotas_(river)) |
