Walk this route to focus on the outlook from Lycabettus Hill and the places that frame the experience of reaching it. Start at the Lycabettus Hill attraction for the hilltop viewpoint, pause at the Τοποθεσία Χαιρετιστήριων Βολών Λυκαβηττού attraction for a more specific viewpoint-related stop, and finish at the Lycabettus Hill Funicular attraction to see the route’s distinctive way up the hill. Take your time, look outward from the heights, and let these three stops turn a famous panorama into a focused walk.

How a walk works

The guide starts talking when you arrive.

This page is the map and the itinerary. The app is the guide who walks it with you.

  1. Pick a walk

    Every stop is a real place, already in walking order.

  2. Pocket your phone

    Follow the line on the live map, or download the walk before you lose signal.

  3. Listen as you arrive

    On a narrated walk the story starts on its own at each stop, so your eyes stay on the place.

Free to install · Every city’s featured walk is free, start to finish.

  • The route, followed

    A live map with the turns called out, and a way back whenever you wander off it.

  • In four languages

    English, French, Spanish and Arabic — the words and the voice, not just the labels.

  • Or build your own

    Pick the places you actually want and the app works out the order to walk them in.

  • The unglamorous things

    Toilets, pharmacies, cash points and water, without leaving the walk.

  • No signal needed

    Download a walk before you go and it works under a souk roof or on a plane.

  • Picks up where you left off

    Stop for lunch, come back tomorrow, and the walk is exactly where you left it.
