The Thermal Springs of Kyllini (Greek: Λούτρα Κυλλήνης, Loutra Kyllinis), also as Kyllini Springs or Kyllini Baths is a thermal spring area with hotels, restaurants, and a beach located on a southwestern tip of this peninsula. The setting is all forest covering the western half of the small mountain range. The length of the road is 1 km west of the junction of a road to Kastro, Neochori and Patras and to Gastouni and Pyrgos. Distances from other places are 2 km SW from Kastro, 75 km SW of Patras, 10 km W of Vartholomio, 16 km W of Gastouni and about 43 km NW of Pyrgos. The western and the eastern parts is the Ionian Sea.
