Unveiling the Secrets of Mount Olympus: Start Your Adventure at the National Park Information Center!


Olympus National Park Information Center

🏔️ Start Your Olympus Journey Here | National Park Info Center

Hey Pieria explorers! I’m George, founder of
experiencepieria.info and producer of the travel TV show
“Discovering Pieria”.
Let me share a true hidden gem that will completely change how you experience Mount Olympus.

🌟 Why This Place Matters

Before lacing up your hiking boots, make the Olympus National Park Information Center your first stop.
It’s not just a building — it’s the key to unlocking the mountain’s secrets.
When our TV host George Apostolidis and I visited,
we were guided by the passionate Mr. Savvas Basileiadis — and left inspired and better prepared for the adventure ahead.

🏔️ An Immersive Journey Through Olympus

The center, designed by the prestigious Goulandris Museum of Natural History,
takes you through seven distinct ecological zones of Mount Olympus.
Large boards (Greek + English) reveal the unique flora and fauna at each altitude — it feels like climbing the mountain without leaving the room.

🏛️ More Than Nature: Culture & History

Olympus isn’t just trees and trails — it’s also history, mythology, and culture.
Learn about archaeological sites like Dion and Leivithra, discover nearby hidden gems such as the Monastery of Agios Dionysius and
the cave of painter Ithakisios — all before stepping outside.

🌍 Multilingual Support & Guided Tours

Whatever language you speak, you’re covered. Multilingual guides and even certified Ecoguides are available to turn your visit into an unforgettable educational experience.
