This is really spectacular climb up to Mount Pentelli and from the top there are incredible views over the city of Athens and out to sea. it's a quiet climb and it's paved all the way up, although in some places the surface is poor and quite cracked so you need to pay attention on the descent. It's quite steep in places but very much worth it with spectacular rock formations jutting out and upwards but the side of the road.

The hardest climb in my opinion but with great views at the top. Watch out for potholes ...

The road is in terrible condition. This ride has become truly suitable for a gravel bike or a mtb, much less so for a road bike. The descent was absolutely sketchy. I would advise to avoid this route if you have a road bike with slim tires.
