Lycabettus Hill

Lycabettus Hill, at 277 meters (908 feet) above sea level, is the highest point in Athens and offers a stunning panoramic view of the Greek capital. This limestone hill rises abruptly from the surrounding urban landscape. You can reach the summit either by a challenging hike up winding pathways or by taking the funicular railway. We took the railway.

At the top, you'll find the picturesque 19th-century Chapel of St. George, a popular open-air theater, and a restaurant with breathtaking vistas. It provides a unique perspective on Athens' ancient and modern architecture, making it a must-visit destination.Les mer
