Rent a Car for Olympos, Karpathos
Perched high in the mountains of northern Karpathos, Olympos is the island's most famous village - a place where old traditions, architecture and even local dress are still very much alive. The drive up is unforgettable, and a rental car is the best way to do it on your own schedule.
Why drive to Olympos
Olympos sits in the remote north, far from the airport and main town. Public transport is minimal and tour times are fixed, so having your own car means you can set off when you like, stop for photos along the dramatic coastline, and stay as long as you want to wander the village's narrow lanes.
Tips for the drive
- The route north is a long, scenic mountain road - allow plenty of time and drive at a relaxed pace.
- The roads are winding with steep sections, so a well-maintained car is a real advantage.
- Fill up with fuel in Pigadia before you set off, as stations are sparse in the north.
