MisDirections to this Hash
Date: Sunday 11th June 2023 11am
Run: 2206
Hare: P*ssy Basher & Amaw*nka
Venue: Kessariani [also written Kaisariani]
On Inn: somewhere local
MisDirections:
From the Centre:
Get onto Katechaki avenue and follow the road right and up towards Kessariani. At the top the road bends to the right and you see road signs Kessariani. Follow these. They take you to the side road on your right. Take this exit.
After 200 meters down this side road, turn left going under the bridge (Alimou-Katechaki highway).
Continue straight - as you enter the road leading up to Ymittos there may be a no entry sign. Ignore this, as it only applies when the Mount is shut overnight.
Continue along the road that climbs up into the mountain for 100 meters.
From
North:
From the Attiki Odos get on the Ymittos ring road.
Keep going to the very end. Do not take the exit for Katechaki, but follow the sign for Kareas Ave.
Very soon you will turn off to the right (signposted to Kessariani). Turn off on this slip road right and after 200ms turn left. You will now pass under the Alimou-Katechaki highway. As you enter the road leading up to Ymittos, there may be a no entry sign. Ignore this, as it only applies when the Mount is shut overnight.
Continue along the road that climbs up into the mountain for 100 meters.
Coming from the South (e.g. Voula, Glyfada)
Get on the Alimou-Katechaki highway, going towards Messoghion Avenue. Note you cannot turn off to Kessariani direct. So pass the turning on your right for Kareas. Pass the next turning on your left for Vyronas. Pass the next junction, with traffic lights. Get in the left hand lane (while still on Katechaki). At the next traffic lights there is a turning left signposted to Kessariani Monastery. Turn left off Katechaki here. You will come to a T-junction, with a cemetery on your right. Turn right here. This road goes uphill and takes you under the Alimou-Katechaki highway. As you enter the road leading up to Ymittos there may be a no entry sign. Ignore this, as it only applies when the Mount is shut overnight.
Continue along the road that climbs up into the mountain for 100 meters.
