Olympus, the highest mountain in Greece and the second highest in the Balkans, after Rila in Bulgaria. A compact yet enormous mass that imposingly dominates the borders of Macedonia and Thessaly.
An important area that has special biodiversity, in 1938 it was declared as the first national park in Greece. It is a mountain known all over the world due to the fact that in mythology and according to the ancient Greek religion, the Twelve Gods chose to inhabit it. Every year thousands of nature lovers visit Mount Olympus to admire the beauty of its nature and to enjoy hiking its slopes and conquering its peak.

Thank you. I am going on holiday in Greece and wanted to hike this with a guide. I haven't done a lot of hiking in years but I walk a lot at work--8-12 hour shifts. After watching your video, I think I can do it.
Wow, so green and lush! Truly, a home of the gods........
Indeed :)
I've always wanted to climb Mt. Olympus; thanks for the vicarious journey. Perhaps, someday, I will be able to join the ranks of others and be a true hiker to the summit.
It’s on my bucket list to climb this mountain. I don’t care if I’m 90 years old and have to use a walking cane, I’m doing it. Oh how I wish.
Thats no problem to the refuge it’s easy even for me with COPD
Very nice and informative experience video for hiking in Mount Olympus!
I love that greece story!
+Sandra Rocha Nice to hear that Sandra! :)
Efharisto poli, this was concise and gave a really good impression of the hike.
You are welcome :)
I really want to hike this peak.
Holy and sacred grounds,who ever goes there they should treat the area with respect.
Of course, they should!
Yes they should treat it with the respect due any wilderness area.
Wouldn't want Zeus smiting you!
In the mountain of gods a breath away of the sea !!!
This helped me so much because i needed it for school
I am glad to hear that :)

He means the real Macedonia...the ancient one, in Greece. Don't be confused with the Slavic state north of Macedonia.
yea you ( i mean greek politick) stole our history, conquer our land force our people to change names surnames, etc. change names of cities, rivers, mountains and etc. fascist. ye we are the real Macedonian and yes ur right we didn't have a religion but after Jesus died apostle Pavle came and bring the religion and by us, we share the language and now more than 15 countries can speak some form of Macedonian aka Slavic language but don't wry because times remember everything and someday will come and our people will live in one country and one border I don't want to offend u man, i just want some real thing what happened after 2 world war and forcing our people to become YOU( i mean greek civilization) from 1946-50 we don't forget. that's not going to happen we are DIFFERENT
@@aleksandarmakedonski8700 You slavs wernt even around the time of Alexander the great or Jesus and the apostles so i dont understand how you have the audacity to even try and claim Hellenic history as your own. you guys invaded the balkans hundreds of years after these events transpired. I feel bad for you people because your world, your identity has been built upon by lies. I hope one day you can find out who you really are, because theres no possible way that you people are related to the Hellenic kingdom and people of Macedon.
me Climbing: ZEUUUUUUUS! YOUR SON HAS RETURNED! I BRING THE DESTRUCTION OF OLYMPUS!
By ThE Gods
The urge to climb it as kratos and Angrily shout Zeus’s Name every 10 Minutes
Does someone know if it's allowed to wild camp in the area? Or are you obliged to make use of the refugses?
You can camp only outside of the refuges 😉
@@tripment Thanks for the reply. I'm thinking of doing a multi day hike through the area, using my tent to sleep!
Is there a way to see the statues of the Greek gods
No I think :)
tripment damn so there not gonna appear
Is it safe to hike solo from Litochoro to Prionia?
I haven’t done this path, so I can’t help you 😑
@@tripment no worry. Thanks for the reply.
Did you list the length of top to bottom at the end of the video somewhere?
You mean the distance?
@@tripment Like the time length total. How long was the hike start to finish time wise? Sorry
@@2580robocop to the first refuge is about 2,5 hours and after that you need 2 more to the second, or 3+ to the top of the mountain
@@tripment Girlfriend and I are going this week. Going to propose somewhere up there! Doing as much research as I can. Thanks for the help!
👍👍👍
1:10 min PAOK is everywhere!
Καλό!
Mount Greek အိုလမ္ပတ္ေတာင္ႀကီး
Once there I saw Hermes/ΕΡΜΗΣ !!!
Zeus, not Hermes! :P
No mate, I am pretty sure he was Hermes cause He told me.Nice video btw !
Which month of the year was it taken?
October
@@tripment thanks for replying :)
How do you book a place at the refuge?
you call them or you email them 🙂
Are they have a good communication in the last refugee? What languages they speak there, besides english? Is it cheap? Thanks, bro!
Hello Felipe! I think they speak only English. Communication? If you mean telephone, you don't have access, as there is no phone signal.
The Gods already killed by kratos and the olympus kingdom broken by him😁
:)
I suppose the gods left long ago because they must have been chased out by all the tourists going to the hotel at the top.
Not all
🙂
do you have to pay for the refuge
Yes, I think 12€
@@tripment should you book it in advance
