Getting There

To access the field from the Attiki Odos, exit at Exit 6 (Ano Liosia - Phylis Avenue) and 500m after the exit you will see a small square. Continue on the main road, just opposite the square, about 3.5 km until you see a colorful church on the right, which you pass and continue for about 500m until the fork on the road. Turn right here and continue up the wide intersection, immediately after the busstop A12, where you turn right (once, not twice, otherwise you will be taken to the monastery of St. Cyprian). Continue straight on the narrow winding road for 1.6 Km until you reach the end of the road. At this point begins the path to the Cave of Pan, and you can either leave your car here, next to the big green water tank, either to continue on rugged dirt road for 200m until the stopping point right from the field. This point is surrounded by beehives. The gray slab of left field can be seen 100m from there and is only 2m away, following good path.
