Olympus mount hiking Map

An easy and perhaps the most well-known route in Olympus. We start from the location of Prionia and from the parking lot of the location with destination Spilios Agapitos refuge. The route is on the international path E4 and is very well signposted.

Description

Μια εύκολη και ίσως η πιο γνωστή διαδρομή στον Όλυμπο. Ξεκινάμε απο την θέση Πριόνια και απο το πάρκινγκ της τοποθεσίας με προορισμό το καταφύγιο Σπήλιος Αγαπητός. Η διαδρομή είναι επάνω στο διεθνές μονοπάτι Ε4 και είναι παρα πολύ καλα σηματοδοτημένη.
