Mount Athos The Holy Mountain This website aims to give you a sense of what it is actually like to be walking on Mount Athos, and thus to complement the other information available about the Holy Mountain on other websites and in guideooks and other publications. The core of our website consists of the pictures taken on 2 journeys made by 3 Englishmen in the summers of 2001 and 2008. There is a separate page for each day of our journey. We hope you enjoy it.
