Mount Parnassus

Listed under Mountains in Central Greece, Greece.

This dry, limestone mount towers over Delphi and its surrounding olive groves. Mount Parnassus is the mythological home of the Muses, Pegasus and sacred to Apollo and Dionysus, so is associated with poetry, music and learning. These days it has a couple of ski resorts.
