In our opinion it's Mount Olympus, in Greece without a doubt. It's Greece’s highest mountain, the legendary home of the Olympian gods. Mt Olympus still draws worshippers of a sort, as trekkers make the two-day climb to its highest peak, Mytikas (2918m).
The most popular trail up the mountain begins at the tiny settlement of Prionia, 18km from Litohoro. From here it’s a 2½-hour climb to Refuge A, with the summit of Mytikas about three hours further. At the summit don’t forget to sign the visitors’ register. It’s possible to climb and descend in two days; start from Refuge A near Prionia.
