Brave driver tackles snow-covered Mt. Olympus (video)

A beautiful sight

Newsroom November 20 08:46

The mountain of the ancient Greek gods, Mt. Olympus, is now covered in fresh blanket of snow, creating a majestic landscape.

A Greek driver defied the wintry conditions this weekend, daring to drive up the snow-covered slopes of the mountain. His dashcam footage shows the mesmerizing beauty of Olympus in the winter.

In addition to Olympus, the mountain tops of Menalo in the Peloponnese, Pilio in Thessaly and Karpenisi in central Greece saw 10 centimeters of snow over the weekend.
