Olympos, Mountain summit in south Lesbos, Greece.
Mount Olympos rises 967 meters above sea level, extending from the plains of Polichnitos and Gera to the coastal settlement of Plomari.
The mountain region has been under environmental protection since its inclusion in the CORINE-Land Cover habitats list and the European Network NATURA 2000.
The mountain slopes contain traditional settlements, including Agiasos village with its significant religious church of Virgin Mary dating from 1170.
Visitors can access Mount Olympos through marked trails starting at Kastianionas village, with a four-kilometer path leading through chestnut and pine forests.
The mountain hosts over 1400 plant species, including twelve rare European orchids protected by CITES treaty and endemic black pine forests.
