Mount Parnitha

Attica's highest mountain (1,413 m at Karavola) and a national park since 1961, about an hour north of the centre, with Greek fir forest, red deer, the Bafi and Flabouri refuges and a cable car up to the Mont Parnes casino. The 2007 wildfire destroyed a large part of the fir forest and recovery is still visible as a patchwork of regrowth and reforestation; further fires have broken out in the area, including several during 2026, so check access before setting out.
