mt. lycabettus (likavitos)印象

Took the lift to the top through the mountain. Nice view of Athens. Not much to see in the area but worth the visit if in the area

The day I visited there was a force 8 gale blowing, however it was a brilliant sunny day. The temperature on one side of the hill was 5 degrees and on the other 1 degree. The view was stunning. From the mountains on one side to the sea in the distance. The whole of Athens is laid out below you. The walk down from the summit through the woods is well worth the time and effort.

We wanted to take the cable car up to the mountain but we couldn't find the point from where it could be taken. So we started to climb up the stairs... It was amazing! The climbing was easy - mostly stairs and normal up-going road, beautiful birds on the way, flowers which we haven't expected (end of January!), fresh air and breath-taking view over the city! It was definitely worth the effort. Nice tea cup on top. On the way back we took the cable-car as it started to rain, but surprisingly it went INSIDE the mountain! Lucky of us we didn't find the entry point in the beginning - we would have missed the amazing trip!

Beautiful small chapel at the top; I know nothing about its significance, but the view of the city is 360 degrees and on a clear day is absolutely fabulous. There is a restaurant up there too but I did not visit it.

A bit of a climb but worth it especially before sunset. A beautiful view of the entire city. There is a cafe. Check for concerts. Great venue.

Take a taxi to the cable car, ride up to the top of the hill, and walk the little way to the cafe and St George's Church. Nothing too exciting on the way up then! Once at the top, however, this hill provides the best view of the whole of Athens, giving a 360 degree view of the 'bowl'. Light a candle in the church for friends and relatives that have passed, and, even as an atheist, there is a strange feeling of calm! Spend a little time up here, have a coffee, draw some breath - and then walk down!!! This is quite an experience as the flora, fauna and bird-life can be somewhat different to the English countryside!! Three tips: decide before you start if you are going to walk down, as the cost for a one-way journey is less; wear sensible walking shoes as the descent can be somewhat slippery in leather-soled town shoes; before you start walking, try to establish where to finish the walk as it can be difficult to find a taxi in some of the higher back streets! Is it worth it? Yes!!

Top of Lycabettos hill can be reached by funicular railcabin or by climbing a lots of steps. On the summit there is a viewpoint providing most amasing views over whole city of Athens in all directions. Regardless of weather, it is a best place for taking a panoramic photo. In the direction towards the sea it is possible to see clearly harbour of Piraeus and Salamis Island. There is a small Church on the top of this hill, and beneath it is an open Theatre situated. If you going down by stairs, you passing through wery pleasant and green park area.

Do not miss this place . It's very easy to get there with a cab and then take the elevator up,although you can walk up. At the top you will have a Fantastic view of Athens.There are plenty of restaurants ,bars and cafes with outdoor seating where you can enjoy lunch,dinner or just drinks while having Athens at your feet . Absouloutly great!

We visited in late afternoon but stayed for the subset and to see the Acropolis night lights going it alive. Judging by the number of posh camera's there to catch this clearly not a hidden gem but definitely something to treasure. As the highest hill in Athens offers stunning panoramic views across Athens and across to the Saronic Gulf.We took the funicular up which was fun, but could also very much see the attraction of walking it, so perhaps do both funicular up and walk backdownWe had drinks in the bar which was very good, and has heaters as was cold in February, also a very nice looking restaurant which on this occasion we sadly did not try.

We were recommended to visit Lycabettus by our taxi driver, who correctly told us this was the number two attraction after the Acropolis. He was right, the views of the Acropolis are tremendous.I advise the use of the cable car to traverse the hill, at €7 return. At the top is a small church and excellent cafe, and extremely pleasant place to while away the morning. We were there very early and it was very quiet but soon built up towards lunch time. In fact we did well to wait there a while as the sun was able to burn off the early morning mist/haze.
