A beautiful evening social hike in nature, featuring panoramic views, a relaxed atmosphere, and great company. We start our route from Diaselo OTE, ascending to the Korakovouni peak, with the illuminated night-time Athens spreading out before us. We continue through the pine forest along a trail that takes on a completely different atmosphere under the moonlight, and descend slightly to reach the Lion's Cave, one of the largest and most impressive caves in the mountains of Attica.
After our stop at the cave, we take a circular route back through dirt roads and footpaths, accompanied for most of the way by the glowing city of Athens below us and the full moon shining above.
