There are two ways to climb a mountain. On the one hand the helical paths aimed at a smoother touring experience in nature. On the other, linear, steep paths using the subject for a more experiential, intense experience through hiking. This subject does not seek comfort but a more rugged and tedious routes, which can create sensations during ascent before the final goal.Putting these two condition to use the hill of Lycabettus is changed to a hybrid landscape of contradictions attached within the urban fabric. Artificial linear paths contradict to the polymorphic tour of natural pathways, but also create a connection with the Athenian cityscape. The specific orientation of the linear path gives a visual equivalent to the filmic, which because of its economy shrinks the landscape and changes it to an intermediate element that connects two or more points. The gradual distancing or approach from and to the landmarks, produces a constant zoom in and zoom out capable of creating an interesting visual experience. Theuser trying to "conquer the peak" and the ultimate view of the Athenian city, follows these four straight paths that pass throughLycabettus and are strengthened through the uses of stops that are interposed. Four different routes, four different points of interest in the city, four different experiences that are joined at the peak on a square:
1. The steep - sunken stairway turns his eyes towards the hill of Strefi
2. The mechanical - hangingroute facing the Acropolis
3. The local path of the water ends up in the square Deksameni, facing the Temple of Olympian Zeusand the Saronikos bay
4. The smooth path extending to the modern city
