Our day starts after we pick you up from Piraeus Cruise terminal or a point close to the cruise terminal if car access is not possible. Our first stop will take place at an altitude of 600m, at Lake Beletsi. The landscape resembles the Alps and is not at all reminiscent of Athens, Greece. Continuing our route to Mount Parnitha we follow a unique off-road route through the forest full of pine trees, goats, chapels, monasteries, natural springs and villages. Crossing the village and heading onwards, the mountain adventure starts again through an off-road route to Voutima wildlife refuge. The uniqueness of the terrain, the dense vegetation, rare species of endemic plants, the different kinds of mammals and species of birds are spread in smaller or larger areas of the mountain. Reaching the west slope of Mount Parnitha, a panoramic breathtaking view of the Saronic gulf with the islands of Salamina and Aigina will appear before our eyes.
Then we head on the asphalt road and drive away while enjoying the panoramic view of the Saronic gulf from above we are going to visit a traditional Greek tavern for our lunch. After our lunch break, we will follow the road back to Piraeus Port.
