Kithairon Mountain Refuge "V.Tsakos"
In the following years, there was a continuous improvement of the refuge’s premises, electrification and heating (1990), as well as an initial configuration of the surroundings. Subsequently, several projects were carried out to reconstruct parts of the refuge and to complete the surrounding area with the construction of a tank/small theatre, marking of paths to and from the refuge, etc. Just below the top of Kithairon, at an altitude of 1,400m, there is a small refuge of the Greek Mountaineering Association (G.M.A.) of Elefsina, with 9 beds.
In 1990, the Air Force General Staff granted the G.M.A. of Elefsina, a small building under the top of Kithairon with the intention of using it as a refuge. This was followed by the reconstruction of the building and landscaping, the renovation and completion of the refuge areas, the construction of a water tank, the final landscaping of the external areas and the marking of the paths to and from the refuge. Refuges operate under the responsibility of Greek Mountaineering Association of Elefsina.
