Vathy, Euboea

The Greek National Road 44 (Thebes - Chalcis - Karystos) passes west of the town.

In recent years due to forest fires, a large part of the area's pine trees have disappeared.

The archaeological site was extensively excavated between 1909 and 1922 by Ronald Burrows and Percy and Annie Ure, under the aegis of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens.

The Ritsona Rally is one of the most famous car races in Greece, taking place every year in December since 1956.

Ritsona is the place, where – 13 years after legalization – the first crematorium in Greece was opened at the end of September 2019.
