- We start a winter trek into the iconic Mount Olympus National park.
I take you up the winter route, passing by Petrostrouga refuge, through the Koka lookout, onto the plateau of Muses, right to the home of the Gods.
In this video I will show you different landmarks to lookout for and turns to make as you navigate your way to the throne of Zeus.
If you need any advise or supplies for your venture into the park, Monika at the 55 Peaks outdoor store in Litochoro was a great help to us

Fantastic video, thanks for sharing! Sure not many people do this mountain in winter!
Thanks for the great video Shane! Is there any way you could share the gpx of your ascent? Very interested to see the route you took!
You had me worried for a second thinking you were going to attempt the peak in winter..! Congrats on the hike though.. it really is such a beautiful mountain to climb. Wish you many more happy adventures.. g
Thankyou George
Great journey, sometimes tricky and hard, but easy as I look to both of You; congrats with the video!
Thankyou Philippe
Hi Shane, what time of year did you climb?
Hey, that was the beginning of April
@@shanesventures1986 thanks I’m planning on going in late September and I’m trying to get visual representations on the area before I go!
Great video guys, what month was the expedition? And you said you didn’t go to the peak because you didn’t have the equipment needed? May I ask what equipment would I need in order to go to the peak? I’m thinking of climbing olympos as my first ever mountain! Is it a good idea?
Hey thanks
We went up in April, and we were incredibly lucky with the weather.
We had professional crampons, but we lacked rope, harnesses, helmets and ice axes.
Well, while I'm really happy that we made it to the base of the tallest peak, I am a bit sad that we couldn't go to the tippy top. That's a trip for another time.
If it was summer, as long as you had a helmet and proper footwear, I'd say climb it, but with the ice and snow, you should make sure you get the right gear.
Talk with Monika at the store, 55 peaks, in Litochoro, she helped us tremendously.
Happy Ventures
Shane
