Few know that it is possible to have a nice walk inside the canal of Corinth. Actually it is possible to get very close to the water level. And the views from there when a ship is crossing are simply amazing!

As you see it from above, it seems impossible to descend into the canal. Hidden behind a turn on the road to Loutraki there is a path that will lead you almost to the water level, right in the middle of the canal, and it is an easy walk, suitable for kids too. You just have to find the start of the path, from the green bridge. Follow the map and bring plenty of water with you, if you intend to wait for a ship, bring some food too 😉
It will take you about 30-40 minutes to reach the end of the path, which starts about 100mt from the bridge.
btw the green bridge is used to carry the city sewerage system, so if the smell may not be very inviting. also if you walk to the middle of the bridge, I know it is forbidden, you will get a different view over the canal and you will be able to get some photos a bit different from the usual post card everybody have from the tourist bridge.
