🏞GREEN ESCAPES: 4 SCENIC HIKES NEAR ATHENS🇬🇷

👉Want to take a breath away from the city beat and surround yourself with nature? You’d be surprised how many fantastic hiking options there are just outside of Athens. Rejuvenating alpine paths and lush forest trails with byzantine delights hiding in plain sight. Intrepid treks near famed ancient ruins. All within an hour of the Acropolis.

👉The team of Plaka Heart has listed for you 5 scenic hike routes to enjoy during your stay in the center of Athens.

1️⃣MOUNT YMITTOS (KAISARIANI MONASTERY)
Located 20 minutes away by bus, the Kaisariani Monastery can be found on the western slope of Mt. Hymettus and is one of the best places for an easy afternoon escape from the city. There are plenty of marked trails that connect Kaisariani monastery with picturesque chapels hidden in the forest, panoramic viewpoints ready to be explored.

2️⃣MOUNT PARNITHA
Frequently visited by the nature-loving Athenians, Parnitha offers up a vast network of paths, rich flora and majestic views. You can wander for hours amid the beautiful landscape and if you’re lucky, even encounter a few deer. There are also 2 mountain shelters named Mpafi and Flabouri serving delicious homemade dishes, traditional spirits or wine.

3️⃣TATOI ROYAL ESTATE
To the northeast of Athens, in the foothills of Mt Parnitha, is Tatoi Palace, where Greece's royal family stayed during summer to flee the city heat. The palace itself has been shuttered for years, and the buildings are in a neglected state but you can walk around the grounds and along the forested paths of the wider area.

4️⃣PAN’S CAVE
Starting from the Fyli suburb at Western Parnitha, this trail leads to the Cave of Pan, an ancient place of worship of the god of wild. The area is popular among rock climbers but except for them, you won’t find many other visitors along the way.
