Greek Gods and Godeses lived on Mount Olympus.

Me and my boyfriend hiked on Olympus mountain a few times. The scenery is very beautiful with stunning views.

The highest peak is Mytikas with an altitude of 2918m .

We made an episode regarding the mountain and also shared some beautiful legends about Greek Gods there.
