MOUNT OLYMPUS

                  

 


 

Mount Olympus in NE Greece is the traditional home pf Zeus and the major Greek gods.  The mountain is the highest in Greece, rising almost straight from the Aegean Sea to a height of 2.917 meters (9.570 feet).

 

In 1938, the mountain and the nearby areas became the National Park of Greece.  Today its lower slopes, broken by narrow, densely forested gorges with waterfalls and caves are popular with visitors trying to see the mountain’s biodiversity.  There are 1.700 plant species, 32 species of mammals, and 108 species of birds on Mount Olympus.    Do visit this extraordinary mountain whenever you can.
