Important Information
18th consecutive edition, organized by E.P.O.S. Fyli with the support of the Municipality of Fyli.
Mountain half marathon in the forest of Western Parnitha that was untouched by the 2023 fire: mostly mountain trails, past streams and springs and on forest roads, passing beside the characteristic «Arma» cliff that gives the race its name.
The courses are about 4/5 trails and 1/5 forest roads and are circular.

Access: from Attiki Odos exit 6 (Fyli – Ano Liosia) follow Leoforos Fylis to Fyli village, at the «Eligmos» junction keep left towards Dervenochoria, after about 7 km turn right just after the wooden forestry hut and continue 500 m to Piges Fylis (about 15 km from the Attiki Odos exit).
