Activity Description

Where impressive waterfalls spring up through slopes and rocks, where pedestals with crystal clear waters glow under the sunlight, that's where we will hike discovering the fabulous beauty of Olympus!

Option 1: Circular route 7.5 Km.

Our beautiful route starts from an altitude of about 260m. and initially moves between low vegetation, which thickens dramatically as we climb higher! Our path crosses rocky slopes, passes through clearings with an impressive view and reaches just over 700 meters after walking for about 1.30 hours.

At this point our descent begins into dense vegetation with tall trees, where the water element of nature slowly begins to make its presence felt!

Until the waterfall of the Red Rock, 20 meters high, appears in front of us and fascinates us! Stop for photos or even dive for the most daring in its icy waters!

Then passing on the opposite side of the stream we continue our descent following a beautiful verdant path, which after about an hour of hiking ends in front of the majesty of nature, the impressive pedestals of Orlias! The natural pools where we will have time for swimming, diving and plowing on the rocks!

Our beautiful route starts from an altitude of about 320m. from a picturesque chapel and it all moves in the incomparably beautiful Rema Orlia!

A beautiful path in amazing vegetation with running water all the way!

A continuous gentle ascent with magical images, which after about 1.30 hours reaches the waterfall of the Red Rock 20 meters high, which really fascinates! Stop for photos or even dive for the most daring in its icy waters!

Then we walk along the same path backward following the verdant path, which is now slightly downhill and after about an hour leads us in front of the majesty of nature, the impressive pedestals of Orlias! The natural pools where we will have time for swimming, diving, and plowing on the rocks!
