There are not that many myths about him. The most famous one concerns the last labor of Hercules, the most difdficult one.

Hercules was to descend into the underworld and persuade Hades to lend him Cerberus. Cerberus was to be taken up on earth and shown to King Eurysteus, then taken back again. And Hercules did all that.
