Mount Olympus - Greece | Multi-day Hike | Ep03
Leaving the comforts of the villages behind, we set our sights on reaching the peak of Mytikas; the highest point in all of Greece. The climb to the top was one off the most dangerous hikes that I've ever done and the grueling descent into Litochoro had us hiking deep into the night.

Climbing Mount Olympus in Greece / Изкачване на Олимп и вр. Митикас, Гърция
Mount Olympus is the highest mountain in Greece and the home of the Gods according to the Greek mythology. It is located in the Olympus Range on the border between Thessaly and Macedonia, between the regional units of Pieria and Larissa, about 80 km southwest from Thessaloniki. The highest peak, Mytikas, meaning nose, rises to 2,918 m above the sea. It's a very beautiful mountain, with a lot of vegetation in the lower parts and steep and rocky peaks in the higher parts.
The most popular ascent route starts at around 1100 meters above the sea, at the Prionia area, located 20 km from the village of Litochoro. Walking up to the famous Olympus Mountain Refuge A (2100 m) and further to Scala Peak (2866 m) is not problematic – a large marked walking trail. You gain around 1800 m of elevation and although the trail is fairly steep at some parts, nothing more than a physical stamina is required. The last short stretch to the peak takes around 1h each way to complete – a quick decent of Scala, than traverse, ascent of the so called Kakoscala (The Evil Stairs) and final traverse/ascent of the ridge towards the peak point. There are some critical point where the attention must be at 100%, especially if the rocks are wet.
The other popular route coming from the Mouson (Musses) Plateau via the Louki Couloir is similar – a bit shorter and steeper, but about the same difficulty grade. There is an additional risk of rockfalls along the Louki route, especially during Spring and early Summer – quite often these could be caused by unexperienced climbers above you. So don`t forget your helmet if you climb Louki!
Our climb starts from Prionia area up to the Spilios Agapitos Refuge (Refuge A) where we stayed for the night and on the next day early in the morning we started to climb Mytikas through Scala route. We have descended it through Louki route and then we've cached the path from the Plateu of the Musses towards the Refuge A. Generally we had a good weather, but I strongly recomend to climb Mytikas early in the morning, because later in the day very often a fog from the sea rises towards the mountain and you cannot enjoy the views. A quickly formed rain showers and thunderstorms are also possible, so be prepared.
-----------------------------------------------
Планината Олимп е най-високата планина в Гърция и дом на Боговете според гръцката митология. Намира се в района Олимп на границата между Тесалия и Македония, на около 80 км югозападно от Солун. Най-високият връх Митикас, който означава нос, се издига на 2,918 метра над морето. Това е много красива планина, с много растителност в по-ниските части и стръмни и скалисти върхове във високите части.
Най-популярният маршрут за изкачване започва на около 1100 м надморска височина в района на Приония, разположен на 20 км от село Литохоро. Преходът до известната планинска хижа А (Спилиос Агапитос - 2100 м) и по-нататък до връх Скала (2866 м) не е проблематичен - голяма маркирана пешеходна пътека. Набирате около 1800 м надморска височина и въпреки че пътеката е доста стръмна в някои части, не се изисква нищо повече от физическа издръжливост. Последният къс участък до върха отнема около 1 час. Представлява бързо спускане от вр. Скала, след което траверс и изкачване на така наречената Какоскала (Стълбите на Дявола) и финален траверс / изкачване на билото към най-високата точка - вр. Митикас. В този участък има доста критични точки, където вниманието трябва да бъде 100%, особено ако скалите са мокри.
Другият популярен маршрут идва от Платото на Музите и през улеят Локи (Louki). Подобен е на първият - малко по-къс, по-стръмен, но със същата степен на трудност. Допълнително съществува опасност от свличане на камъни по улея Луки, особено през пролетта и началото на лятото - често те могат да бъдат причинени от неопитни катерачи над вас. Така че не забравяйте каската си, ако решите да минавате оттам!
Нашето изкачване започва от района на Приония (паркинга) до хижа А (Спилиос Агапитос), където останахме за през нощта и на следващия ден рано сутринта започнахме да изкачваме Митикас по маршрута през вр. Скала. От върха се спуснахме по улея Локи, откъдето хванахме пътеката от Платата на Музите към хижата. Като цяло се радвахме на сравнително добро време, но силно препоръчвам върхът да се изкачвам рано сутрин, защото по-късно през деня много често заради високата влажност от морето се вдига мъгла към планината, която пречи да се насладите на гледките отгоре. А те си заслужават! Възможно е образуването на бързи гръмотевични бури и дъждове, които сякаш се оформят от нищото, затова бъдете подготвени.

#MythologyExplained
Wiki: Greek mythology is the body of myths originally told by the ancient Greeks. These stories concern the origin and the nature of the world, the lives and activities of deities, heroes, and mythological creatures, and the origins and significance of the ancient Greeks' own cult and ritual practices. Modern scholars study the myths in an attempt to shed light on the religious and political institutions of ancient Greece and its civilization, and to gain understanding of the nature of myth-making itself.
Bottom to the Top | Olympus - 2918
We love mountains. The question is why.
Why do we keep doing this?
Why do we keep climbing, trail running, snowboarding, skiing ?
Why do we keep sweating, struggling, failing and do that over and over again?
Why do we push ourselves?
Is it to escape the routine?
Is it for the fleeting gratification behind social posts, likes and shares?
Personally, when i find myself on the top, i discover inner peace.
The sweat, the weariness, the cold and the fear is the bitter taste of a fine dining meal on the top.
While staring the world from the top, we understand how small we are.
How everyday problems matter little up here.
How the mountains gives us a chance to push ourselves to get to know ourselves.
The days we push ourselves beyond our comfort zone are the best days.
A selection of clips from our latest hiking trip on Olympus mountain.
When breathtaking scenery and great company meet.

The Twelve Gods of Olympus
Hades was never part of the Twelve Olympians as he is a chthonic (beneath the earth's soil) god as he ruled and pretty much stayed in the Underworld. Also Hestia although originally a member of the Olympians stepped down so Dionysus to become a member of the Gods of Olympus. Even though Hestia and Hades are not Olympians they are still very important powerful gods.
Greek Gods - SNL
Zeus (Jason Sudeikis) summons the gods to Mt. Olympus to solve the financial crisis in Greece. Realizing no Greek god is in charge of economics, Zeus brings in a strict German god (Fred Armisen) to deal with the problem. [Season 37, 2011]
