Vytina (Greek: Βυτίνα), is a village and a municipality located in northwestern Arcadia, Greece. It is the seat of the municipality of the same name. The village was connected, now bypassed by GR-74 in the east and is SW of GR-33 which connects to Achaea. It is located E of Pyrgos, approx. 145 km SE of Patras, NE of Megalopoli and Dimitsaina and approx. 25 km NW of Levidi and 5 km SW Tripoli. The plain is E of Vytina.

The village has a school, a church, a post office, and a square (plateia). The village is located on the slopes of the mountain ranges which includes Mainalo. Another mountain range is founded in the west and another to the north along with the valley. Pine trees surround the eastern and the southern part of the village while much of the municipality are forested.

Until the 1960s, the village did not have electricity and until the 1980s, most of the houses were stone-built.

The area produces marble, a variation called the Black of Vytina.
