★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great little hike! Do bring water with you cuz it’s out in the open! It is nice and pretty easy to walk around there. A lot shorter than I thought. The view is gorgeous from the top. You can see 360 of Athens!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a really great spot tucked away beyond the obvious tourist attractions and revered sites. This was an incredibly pleasant experience and site and filled with awe inspiring views of the Acropolis and Mars Hill, which dreamily feel just a mere breath away. This is a great spot for pictures and the walking paths are relatively easy-ish. The views are altogether staggering as is most of the enveloping vicinity. Great place and known also as ‘The Hill Of The Muses”.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I can't believe I hadn't visited this area of Athens earlier. Gorgeous views, ancient ruins and nature at a stone's throw from the very centre of Athens and yet far from the crowds. It's a grove, not a forest, so don't expect much shade. Ideal for easy walks or just to chill (Don't you dare litter such a place!)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I discovered this place by accident while walking past the Acropolis one evening. I noticed people veering off onto paths leading up the hill. There are signposts indicating sights like the Prison of Socrates and Philopappos Monument so it is difficult to get lost but most people go to sit and watch the sunset over the Acropolis to the north and the Mediterranean to the south. Just head for the highest point and soak up the views. It's an easy walk but sturdy shoes recommended.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Quiet, green place in the middle of Athens. Accessible park with gorgeous views and nature around.
Visited in winter sunny day, there was not so many people, great for peace and taking pictures without someone in.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing walk not so far away from the Acropolis. The park is really nice, and it was not so crowded with people. I also chose to do a less know walking routes through park and was amazed how many turtles roam the park. It's a really gorgeous mediterranean park with beautiful views on Athens, and I will definitely have to return here to enjoy nature in the heart of the city.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This was right behind our hotel and it is a great walking spot...so many things to see and views are stunning. Go to the loo before you set off as there are no working loos on either side ? And yes, that is snow you can see...heaviest snow they'd had on seven years on the week we were there! ?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a great place to walk when you need some fresh air and exercise. It's also a great place to snap some good photos of the city, and most importantly, the Acropolis.
Also, keep an eye out for local wildlife. The turtles are especially fun to find if you're walking with your kids.
