Access to starting point:
The trailhead is in Athens, at an altitude of 270 meters, at the foot of the hill at the end of Egeou Pelaous street in the Agia Paraskevi neighborhood.
Route description:
A motorway runs along the western part of the hill throughout; we cross it through one of the tunnels. The path initially leads through a low pine grove, but soon the pines disappear and are replaced by bare rock and shrubbery. To the west, there is a constant view of Athens, while to the east, there is a view of the airport and the sea.
There is also a road to the top of Hymettus used by cyclists. Just below the summit are numerous transmitters, and access to the summit itself is prohibited due to military facilities.
