Olympus the house of Gods

The first time a human being set foot on Mytikas, the highest peak of mount Olympus,was in 1912. Around a century ago. The home of the 12 Olympian Gods, is still a challenge for anyone who is trying to explore it. This is why, even if someone has visited and climbed it many times, he will still have missed a picturesque village, a magical forest which still remain unexplored. A traditional tavern emits the smells of local recipes, still waiting to be tasted the next time you are going to climb the mountain. Besides its endless beauty, Olympus has limitless volume. This is why it is divided in four regions. The hiking/climbing trails are based on this division. The following trails are the most classical ones.
