Most tourists may make a beeline for the region's seaside resorts, but every year a growing number of walkers tackle Mt Mytikas or Mt Olympus (2 917m). They come in search of untamed nature, fabulous views and with the hope of perhaps taking a few fragments of eternity from the gods. If old buildings are your passion, you will love the marble streets of peaceful Dion, laid out at the foot of the celestial home of Zeus.
