Description

Olympus 100 Years As The Gull Flies

We flew above 14,000 feet - higher than the peaks of Olympus - in the heart of winter, saw the sunset light red the rocks of Stefanios and Mytikus, rose in the air in the mornings before sunrise, circled the mountain to see all the shades in its autumn woods, … and we made this album to share with you the immense power and aesthetic perfection of the divine mountain.

Olympus, the landscape of a sacred mountain.

The publication of this photo album coincides with the 100th anniversary of the first ascent to the top of Olympus and records the most important events of its recent mountaineering history, as well as stories of people who connected their lives with the mythical mountain.

The first ascent of Mount Olympus in 1913.
