Hiking on the path of gods
Activity Description
A mythological hike at the foot of Mount Olympus, rich in beautiful images, learning, and history!
A few words about our adventure ...
Olympus in Ancient Greek Mythology is referred to as the house of the Twelve Gods. Olympus is also known for its rich flora and fauna with many species of animals and plants and is the first National Park in Greece since 1938.
With the aura of the mythical mountain sweeping us and the mountain aromas from Pefka and the flowers of Olympus pushing us to the mountain, we start our hike in Litochoro. We follow old alleys passing in front of the First Primary School, built in 1907 and we end up in the church of Agia Paraskevi where we leave the village and follow a path with a magical view to Litochoro and the sea.
At Vythos we have an amazing view of the high peaks of the mountain (Mytikas 2918m, Stefani 2909m) from the large opening made by the imposing gorge of Enipeas that stands above us.
Following the clearing of the waters of Enipeas, we reach the "Kolymbithra of Zeus", a magical place and we continue to the area of Lakkos, the last stop of our hike. From there we return full of images and experiences to our base in the central square of Litochoro.
Ideal hiking for children since for our little friends who want to discover Mount Olympus, a map-sketch of the route is available so that through the games they can love nature and the mountain.
