Not only is this the second mountain called Mount Olympus this trip but it was also our second military compound in two consecutive peaks after completing Mahya Dağı in Turkey a few days previously.

This time the atmosphere felt a lot more relaxed to be near the summit. I had no issues taking photographs.

It was quite an easy one as there is a road that goes all the way to the top. We stopped at a car park and decided to do a loop around the place.

I got as close as I could to the summit without physically being in the military compound.
