Venue: KAREAS…. (The St. John Monastery parking area)

On Inn: tbc

Directions:

From the North:
Drive down Kifisias Ave, get into the sliproad on the right so as not to go under the Katehaki underpass.
Turn left over the Katehaki underpass next to the Israeli embassy.
Keep straight and you cross Mesogion Ave and continue on Katehaki Ave. towards Mount Immitos.
Keep going past the turn off to Kessariani Monastery on the right, and continue as below*

Or:
Get on the Attiki Odos and the Immitos ring road
Follow the ring road to the end and you are on Katehaki
(the road which goes from Mesogion Ave across Mount Immitos to Glyfada)

Keep going past the turn off to Kessariani Monastery
*Keep going for a km past a turn signposted "Pangrati Vyronas"
Just before the top of the hill (the end of Katechaki) turn LEFT into Kareas
This junction has traffic lights - you need to be in the left lane
After 200m the road bears to the right and 100m later to the left
Keep on this main road as it winds up through Kareas
(The road is called Leof. Agiou Ioannou Karea)
**You pass restaurants, a supermarket etc.
At the end of a long straight stretch the road curves to the left and then right
You reach a point where there are trees (no buildings) on your left
Almost immediately turn into a road on the left (after 100m of trees)
There are two tavernas here - "O Ioannis" and "Ta Asteria"
Drive past these two tavernas and park at the top of this road.
NB: As the small car park at the very top of this road gets very crowded -
it might be wiser to park on the road just before/below the car park.

Coming from the South:
Follow the signs for Olympic Stadium or Mesogion Ave which take you onto Katehaki
At the top of the hill, housing finishes on your left and there is a clear view of Athens
This is the start of Katehaki - the link between the South and Mesogion Ave.
Just after this turn right immediately into Kareas

This junction has traffic lights - you need to be in the right lane

This road is called Leof. Agiou Ioannou
Follow directions as above**
