Modern Description: The foot of the rocky hill paralleling lake Kaifa N of Zacharo, Ileia, is full of caves. Presumably that of the Anigrides Nymphs is now occupied by a state-owned spa complex, fenced/locked and dilapidated (2019/12), but with a strong sulphur smell to commemorate the vanished nymphs. The lake has birds and annual water-ski competitions.
