"La colina Lycabettus es una de las atracciones turísticas más populares de Atenas debido a su ubicación estratégica y las vistas panorámicas que ofrece. Los visitantes pueden subir a la cima de la colina a pie o en teleférico, que es la opción más cómoda y popular.

"The Hill of Lycabettus is basically one of the few green spots of Athens. The hill is covered with pine trees and it is crossed by paved paths. Placed close to the center of Athens, the hill is 304m high. In fact, it is the highest point of the Athenian basin and a great place to enjoy stunning views of the whole city, its suburbs and the sea that surrounds Athens.
On top of the hill, there is a small white-washed church dedicated to Agios (Saint) Georgios, which can be seen from many points of Athens. Apart from this church, Lycabettus hill also has a restaurant that offers delicious meals. This place is ideal for having romantic dinners with the view of the entire city in the background. Lycabettus hill is also very popular when it comes to concerts."
