Description
Below the mountain of the gods with Mytikas dominating above you a unique destination where history and mythology unfold on the foothills of Olympus, in the ancient city of Dion. As we ascend the paths of the mythical mountain, we will experience the awe that Daniel-Baud Bovy, Fred Boissonnas and Christos Kakalos felt when they first reached the top. The feeling they felt was reflected in the characteristic phrase written by Boissonnas: "We have arrived! The first people, after the gods left ". Experience with us a tour where secrets, stories and myths will unfold as we climb, each point has its own story. We will pass by Petrostrouga, the cave of where Vassilis Ithakisios, a great contemporary painter lived and painted his works. The plateau of the Muses, the view from Skourta, the face of Zeus carved in the rocks, the wonderful sunset from the Muses Plateau and the unique sunrise from the Prophet Elias and of course the climbing to the top of Mytikas for the most daring!
