Itinerary
Dion is the holy city of the ancient Macedonians. Spend a wonderful day in ancient Dion, the center of worship of the gods of Olympus. It was such a great force that it gained, due to its strategic importance, that Olympic Games were organized to this city. There is a museum where you can see all the finds from Dion and all of Pieria.
The Platamon Castle is a Crusader castle built between 1204 and 1222 and is located southeast of Mount Olympus in a strategic position which controls the exit of the Tempe valley, through which passes the main road connecting Macedonia with Thessaly and southern Greece.
A little bit later we walk through the gorge of Enipeas. At the end of the path one can see the bathtub of Zeus with a small waterfall.
At the end of the tour, we will make a stop at the village of Litochoro, which is built at the foothils of mount Olympus.
