Hiking in Olympus (from Gortsia location - Petrostrougas shelter)
Activity Description
A mountaineering route on the imposing Olympus, the mountain of the Gods, in a green forest of black pine and robolas, which reaches the shelter of Petrostrouga!
Starting from the location "Gortsia", a few kilometers away from Litochoro and at an altitude of 1100 meters, we follow an uphill path in an impressive nature that fascinates every hiker! We pass by a beautiful gazebo and a bench with a beautiful view to the wild slopes of Olympus, where we take short breaks!
We continue our hike in the dense forest until we reach the shelter of Petrostrouga, which is built at 1940 meters! There, enjoying the spectacular view of the endless blue of the Aegean Sea, we will have time for coffee and snacks. Then we will start for our return to the starting point following the same path backward.
A special journey through the mythical Olympus with magical images of nature, which captivate every traveler and mountain lover!
