Greece

Litochoro

A mountain town at the foot of Mount Olympus, close to the sandy beaches of the Olympic Riviera.

Destination story

A place with its own rhythm.

Litochoro sits where Mount Olympus, the mythical home of the Greek gods, rises from the Aegean coast. The town is the main gateway to Olympus National Park and the Enipeas gorge, with stone houses, mountain views and the sea just a few kilometres away.

For WOFA participants, Litochoro offers a dramatic natural setting for performances and a peaceful base between mountains and sea. Groups can combine the festival with visits to ancient Dion, nearby castles and the beaches of the Pieria coast.
