MisDirections: Look for the Blue H*sh Flag!!
Ano Kifisia (Athens Northern Suburbs)
From downtown Athens follow Kifisias Av. northwards through Kifisia and after EKO gas station turn right onto Mouson St.; at the next traffic light turn right onto Harilaou Trikoupi St. and follow the signs for Melissia. Carry on along this road; follow round the sharp left-hand turn onto Pavlos Bakogiani St.
In approx. 200ms you will come to a small roundabout – do not bear right but take the next exit off the roundabout [this is still Pavlos Bakogiani St.] & after 1Km turn left onto Orfeos St. and go ahead to meet Rodou St. and find somewhere to park. Hash starts here at the entrance to the wooded area where we park the cars.
IF LOST - YOU ARE LOST - either go home or call someone who cares…
Lost? Directionally Challenged?? Just plain gormless and stupid???
