Mountaineering
The weather on Mount Olympus is notorious – not just in Greece, but among mountaineers throughout Europe.
The mountain rises almost 3,000 meters directly from the coastal plain of the Aegean Sea.
This location causes warm, humid air to rise from the sea, and thunderstorms can form very quickly, especially in summer.
The weather can change completely within 30 to 60 minutes.
