Tuesday morning October 1st we started at 5.00 pm our hike to the summit from the refuge Panaghia. 
The sky was clear, the view was fantastic and the sunrise magnificant!

Athos - Agion Oros 
How long is the hike up there to the top?
If you start at almost 0-100 meters you’ll reach the top (2026 m)in about 5 hours depending your fysical condition an the times you stop resting and enjoying the views. We did it once, up and down, in app. More then 11 hours in our late 50ties but that was hard.
Very nice! I want to do it with son before too long…
