The excursion starts in Livadi Parnassos and after about 45 minutes on a dirt road we approach the forest path that leads to the cave. The hike will last about 1 hour with excellent view of the valley at the last part of the trail. The entrance of the cave is located on steep rocks of moderate difficulty where we will guideyou safely through the difficult passages. In autumn the cave slowly begins to collect water, the bold ones who will not hesitate to walk in the icy water will be able to visit 2 large rooms! Stalagmites, stalactites and natural basins compose a fairytale setting in which one can easily envision fairies enjoying their bath while singing.
After the end of the activity on our return to Athens, if time allows it, we will visit the waterfalls of Petra. A waterfall that falls with momentum, from the slope of Elikonas Mt., and forms towards the end of its route two smaller waterfalls, a magnificent landscape that will come to complete in harmony our fairytale escape.
