Why Olympus?

The famous Mount Olympus in Greece!

We will see the historical home of ancient gods in our two-day excursion, with a professional guide. Let's meet the fascinating landscape of the iconic mountain.

Mount Olympus is the highest mountain in Greece at 2,918 meters, located within the mountain range of the same name, it draws tourists from everywhere to climb its peaks, explore its nature, and learn its culture.

We will start early on day one, meet our tour guide, discuss and plan our day and trek ahead. We will drive to Prionia to start the hike, where the forest lines our path as we make our way to Refuge C. Our journey continues to the Muses Plateau (2,650m) and our overnight hut.

The second day we will pass through the "Throne of Zeus" and scramble up a challenging couloir to the top. This is not mandatory for everyone. If someone wants to return or wait to our accomodation site then you are more than welcome to relax and enjoy tour day there.

Those tho will continue to the peak, will enjoy an incredible view, and as we descend to the second highest peak (at Skolio – 2,911m), we can have a rest and enjoy unbelievable panoramas of Kakoskala and Skala.

This is a sustained hike, so you should be in reasonably good shape (especially for the peak). There are some challenging moments and keep in mind that we are a group, not individuals.
