Before you set off, Momizen.com has gathered the activities worth your time in North Attica into one easy directory.
Why North Attica Is the Best Choice for Big Day Trips
North Attica is not a quick Saturday morning outing. It's for those days when you want to watch your children run, discover and come home tired from joy.
Getting there: The Athens-Lamia National Road (E75) is the main artery. Acharnes is 20-25 minutes from the centre, Parnitha 35-40 minutes, Malakasa 30-35 minutes, Oropos 45-55 minutes.
Mount Parnitha: The Mountain You Can Play On
Attica's highest mountain (1,413m) is one big open playground for families willing to step off the tarmac.
Cable Car
The cable car ride to the summit is an experience in itself for children of all ages. The view, the wind, the excitement — don't miss it.
Family Hiking Trails
Easy trails suitable for families, even with young children aged 4-5. Start with a target of half an hour and let the children tell you if they want more.
