Litochoro sits at the foot of Mount Olympus, around 100 kilometres south of Thessaloniki Airport. It is the main gateway village for Olympus treks, with most trails starting from Prionia just above the town. We meet you in arrivals with a name sign and drive you straight to your hotel, guesthouse, or — on request — directly to the Prionia trailhead in a Mercedes-Benz vehicle. The drive is fast on the PATHE motorway with a short climb at the end.

About the Destination

Litochoro is a small town on the eastern slopes of Mount Olympus, the highest mountain in Greece and the mythological home of the twelve Olympian gods. The town has preserved its mountain village character and serves as the main base for hikers, climbers, and visitors to the Olympus National Park.

The drive from Thessaloniki Airport heads south on the PATHE motorway, with the Litochoro exit leading inland and up a short mountain road to the town. From Litochoro a further winding road continues to Prionia, the main trailhead for Olympus summit treks.
