Hiking on Mount Olympus

This mythical mountain, the kingdom of the 12 gods of Olympus, which has been mentioned in countless books, theatrical plays and university amphitheaters, is located about 1 hour away from the city of Larissa. Olympus has been included in the world list of biosphere reserves and has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is worth visiting its paths, to explore the variety of plants and insects and to admire its unique nature.

Water biking at the amazing Lake Plastira, which overlooks the mountains of Agrafa, is one of the most exciting activities for you to enjoy. Lake Plastira is an artificial lake.  It took its name from the Greek politician Nikolaos Plastiras who was the inventor of the method to create artificial lakes.

The Alcazar Aesthetic Grove is a great choice for cycling enthusiasts as it provides a bike path along Venizelou Street. Crossing the grove by bicycle gives you the opportunity to safely enjoy the surroundings of the area while you can visit the alleys of the old town, the Alcazar Park and the fortress.
