History The area followed the fate of the rest of Achaea. Between 1460 and 1821 the area was ruled by the Ottoman Turks, except a brief period of Venetian rule between 1687 and 1715. In the Venetian censuses of 1697 and 1699 the village was called Alpochori Trano (Αλποχώρι Τρανό) and had 111 inhabitants, in 1700, it had 38 families. Alepochori became Greek after the Greek War of Independence of 1821.

Alepochori was part of the municipality of Erymanthia between 1835 and 1841, and of the municipality of Tritaia between 1841 and 1912. It was an independent community between 1912 and 1998, and became part of Tritaia again in 1998. At the 2010 Kallikratis reform, it became part of the new municipality Erymanthos.
