The Anopaia Atrapos
The Efialtis Path, historically known as the Anopaia Atrapos, is the mountain passage on Mount Kallidromo that altered the course of western history. In September 480 BC, during the Greco-Persian Wars, a local Greek named Ephialtes of Trachis used this secret trail to guide the Persian army behind the Greek defensive lines, leading to the ultimate destruction of King Leonidas and his men.
