Highlights
- Mount Olympus - We have our meeting from 08:00 to start our tour towards Mount Olympus. Driving up for almost 3h, including breaks, we are reaching the maximum point of the route. The south side of Mount Olympus is a charming and simultaneously rugged landscape up to 2,450m at Christakis Valley. There we will rest and prepare our personal and climbing gear for our climb to Mytikas Peak. We follow a well-marked trail for one hour to Skala summit 2,880m where we will get ready for our final ascent.
The route is 600m demanding with a high degree of difficulty since in most parts we must climb. Our rope techniques will keep you safe 100% on your way to the top of Greece. Once reaching the peak ‘’Pantheon’’ Mytikas at 2,918m feel the energy, capture the moment, sign the mountaineer’s book, and rest until our return.
Our estimated time being on top of Greece will be at 14:00 and our return back will be at 20:00

Prioritize yourself - As a solo traveler, often it's not easy to find a day activity. Xtremeway Outdoors welcomed me to join in. There were three hikers with different hiking levels. We all worked together with the expert guide and completed the hike. Even Zeus cooperated so we could have a fabulous experience.

Sensational one day hike Mytikas 2918m. - What an adventure. Thomas is definitely the most experienced guide on the mountain. Thomas helped me every step of the way along with his 2 assistants. Together all 3 guides were professional and patient with all the climbers. Having no experience as a climber, not once did I feel unsafe. I really liked the small group size making the day more safe, intimate and memorable. Mytikas is truly a magical place. This tour should be on every ones to do list!

A remarkable experience - Honestly, one of the most amazing experiences I’ve had. Thomas and his team were remarkable guides and great people. I enjoyed just being with them.
Now, I’m afraid of heights and the climb is not super easy. Thomas gave me the confidence that I needed to make it to the top. Climbing Olympus was a bit of a life changing experience for me. I’m going to do something else cool with these guys again.

Same but different - Although I already made that tour last year,I enjoyed making it again many thanks ❤️ to our guide Thomas Pantazis. He is a great guide and a extraordinary teacher 💪🙏🔥.
He renewed the tour without compromising with security ( harness, ropes, 2 guides for a group of 4, via Ferata, …)
The adventure thrill 😱 was present without any risks!
I definitely highly recommend it!

Great day with great guides - Thomas and Kostas were great guides for our small group of 4! Hike was amazing, great scenery and weather. Really enjoyable day, would definitely recommend the guided hike for Mount Olympus as you really need the harness for safety for the final few climbs.
