Tips

Philopappos Hill (also Filopappos or Philopappu) is a hill close to the Acropolis. The hill is 147 meters high. This is not the highest hill in Athens (that is the hill of Lykavittós), but you do have a beautiful view. It is also easier to walk up this hill. This hill and the surrounding area are very green. Especially the view is spectacular. You have a wide view over the Acropolis and other sights. It is often less crowded here than at other viewpoints. If you don't want to make a long hike, but still want to enjoy nature, this is definitely recommended.

From the hill you have very beautiful views of the Acropolis and the surrounding city.
