Αισθητικό Δάσος Υμηττού周辺のおすすめファミリーハイキング＆ウォーキング

Kaiti Argyropoulou was the president of the Athens Forestry Association. During her lifetime, she contributed decisively to the reforestation of Hymettus, while the restoration of the historic Kaisariani Monastery and the creation of the aesthetic forest of Hymettus are due to her own initiative.

You can go here from several places: from the monastery of Kessariani, from the monastery of Saint John Kynegos, from Papagos and from Paiania.

Very interesting. Arrive early as it gets very crowded in the afternoon on weekends.

Mount Immitos is one of the best places near Athens for hiking.

Beautiful view of Athens and Attica from Mount Karakovouni.

A wonderful place on the outskirts of Athens. A good starting or finishing point for a circular hike on the paths around the monastery and towards the peaks. Parking is limited, however. Another alternative is the car park further up the road at the fire brigade observation tower.

There are several hiking trails leading to this peak. In spring and summer it can get very hot as there are few trees to provide shade. The terrain is very rocky and steep in places. Good footwear and surefootedness are recommended. The view of Athens and the surrounding area is fantastic.

Best in spring or autumn. After a rain shower, the air is clear and the view of Athens is enchanting. Just take the path uphill from the monastery's botanical garden and follow the yellow markings.
