OLYMPUS
OLYMPUS TAXI | Taxi Litochoro Pieria
Olympus is the highest mountain in Greece known worldwide mainly for its mythological context, as at its peak (Mytikas-2,918 m.) lived the Twelve "Olympic" Gods according to the religion of the ancient Greeks. It is also the second highest mountain in the Balkans (after Rila in Bulgaria).
Its solid mountain mass dominates the borders of Macedonia and Thessaly, with a series of high peaks that groove deep ravines, around which stretches an area of special biodiversity. To protect this unique heritage, it was declared as early as 1938 as the first National Park of Greece.
