Not Easy!! You’re better off asking for a lift, but if you’re determined, and start early,
the 304 goes from Nomismatokopeio to the big Vravrona hotel.

Why not make use of the Athens Hash Social & Chat group on WhatsApp?

From the North:
Head for Loutsa. Go down the hill to the sea and turn RIGHT at the lights. Follow this road for about 6km!!
Past the Revoil petrol station…
Past FC & WD’s house…
Past the Ippokampos seafront café…
Past the Hotel (currently Dolce Attica Riviera)…
Just when you think the road has turned away from the sea, there’s a left turn. Turn Left…
After 1km, turn left into the car Park of the Archaeological museum.

From the South:
From Glyfada, through Vari, to Koropi. Turn right and right again toward
Markopoulo. At the traffic lights across the dual carriageway in Markopoulo, you want to go straight
across.
Markopoulo has a difficult one way system!
Pass the "South Park" cafe on the left, and at the next junction there is a petrol station on the opposite corner. Turn left here.
Follow this road, across the lights, until you reach the "No Entry" sign.
Turn right because you have to.
Follow this road to the T-Junction, with a café opposite, and turn left.
You are now on the road out of Markopoulou, heading for Porto Rafti.
Continue along this road, past ElectroNet and the Police Station.
After a short distance you will see a traffic island - turn left towards Artemida.
Follow the Artemis road through the back country for about 6km.
There’s a sharp right turn, and after about 1km a junction. Go right (actually more like straight-on)
After another 1km, turn left into the Museum. We meet in the car park..

***Important***
It will take you at least 35 minutes from Mesogeion, or at least 20 from the Airport
