Home of the Gods

Located on the border between Thessaly and Macedonia and standing with its peak Mytikas at almost 10,000 feet (2,918 m), Mount Olympus is the highest mountain in Greece, one of its most picturesque sites and mythical home of the ancient Greek Gods. Don’t forget that is was here, from its steep rocky summit – first climbed only 100 years ago, where Zeus supposedly hurled his thunderbolts against humankind.
Mount Olympus has 52 peaks, deep gorges, exceptional biodiversity and is one of the highest peaks in Europe in terms of topographic prominence.
