Scrambling those areas can easily be the most exciting experience. I enjoy very much this trail running in Greece, as if I was doing it myself. Thanks for the great work.

Guillaume, that looked amazing. Is there a circular loop for doing all 52 peaks? It would be an amazing project. Where's the best place for online maps of all the peaks? Thanks for posting

[@runnexplorer]

Hi, 52 is the number of the video not the number of peaks on Mount Olympus. I went up from the valley from Litochoro for Myticas (the highest peak of Mount Olympus) Check my strava: wwww.strava.com/activities/969682302

Amazing! There were a few people with climbing gear (helmets etc.), do you think running gear is adequate for the route?

[@runnexplorer]

Good question. They were definitely overly geared for that very section. However, they were going for other climbing bits after that path. They were not using their climbing kit there. The route was technical (and definitely reserved to experience people) but just below the "climbing limit".

Is the ascent very dangerous? Do descend the same place you ascend?

[@runnexplorer]

Hi, The ascent isn't. The path I took for the downhill is not at all the main route and is very technical. It requires quite some experience and very sure footing. Sticking to the main path is the safe way to go.
