"Went to meet Zeus & Co. Found only hordes of hikers and few climbers, to which we added a count of 3 😆
4 (of out 52 🤦♂️) summits: Skala, Mytikas (or Pantheon, and the highest), Skolio, Agios Antonios.
Family walk to Skala, then single push to Mytikas and exit via loop. I guess I was so excited, that even forgot to sign in summit registries 😆
Haven't seen the refuge's sleeping quarters, but based on glances at the dinning and common rooms, I'd say it's the cleanest and largest alpine hut/refuge I've ever seen.
PS: coming from Canada, who would guess that Greece mountains have snow in it, eh 😆 spikes would've been handy." — alexp • Oct 10, 2025

"From Kongur, an easy descent to track on Bulgarian side. The plan was to walk along the ridge, taking in the two intervening peaks, but with clouds coming in, the weather forecast's threat of rain (did not transpire), and poorer visibility, I decided to continue along the track and perhaps take them in on return. The walk was long and would have been more appreciated in better visibility; as it stood I only got a few glimpses of the valley on the north side. After a good hour or so there is a sign pointing to a small path off the track which offers a fairly accurate, if pessimistic even, 20 mins to the summit. Here once again the promised great views were largely obscured, only occasionally offering a glimpse of the other nearby hills. I decided against the ridge walk, already being tired and suffering from a pain in my right big toe which I had before the walk but decided to bear with. The return along the track was uneventful. I made life a little hard for myself by deciding not to do the 70m ascent of Kongur again, rather taking the long loop of the track which seemed interminable. To return to the car, rather than try the small path again, which looked steep on descent, I follo..." — vygodski • May 31, 2025
"From Kara Tepe walked down road to south west and then up a small path which takes one to a fountain before finding the large wide strip of road that leads directly to this hill. The surrounding area is called the Sheik Su forest and dates from Ottaman times, apparently. On the top itself is a stone terrace which sports, as well as a couple of pergola, a huge surveillance camera which pivotted to watch our approach. My suspicion is that this is to watch for illegal migrants, although it could just be a way to survey the port of Thessalonika. I encountered a large tortoise on top and all through our walk I saw lots of butterflies, the most striking of which was an almost florescent lime green. From here on to nearby Artemis to the east" — vygodski • May 30, 2025
