🇬🇷 Greece

Greece's terrain is marked by rugged mountains, rolling hills, and extensive coastlines. Mount Olympus, the mythic home of the gods, is the highest peak at 2,917 meters, surrounded by rich forests and dramatic gorges. The country also features thousands of islands, each with its own unique landscapes ranging from arid plains to lush greenery. The varied mainland and island geographies are a haven for outdoor activities like hiking, sailing, and exploring secluded beaches and ancient ruins nestled in scenic settings.
