The Summit Hiking in Profitis Ilias reserves one of the most beautiful and rare phenomena worldwide, the phenomenon of the shadow of the mountain.
The mountain of Taygetos is the protagonist, with its shadow falling on the laconic bay and offering beautiful images to its visitors.  

Every year hundreds of climbers and hikers visit the mountain to see the supreme goddess but also to be lucky (to have no clouds) to see this wonderful phenomenon.
Taygetos is almost 3 hours away from Athens and the road network is in excellent condition (except for the last 5km when a four-wheel drive vehicle is needed)
