Location: |
The stadium is located in Fyli (also called Hasia), a village
about 15 km north of the centre of Athens, on the foothills of Mt
Parnitha. The best way to get there by car is to use
Attiki Odos, the Athens ring road. Leave the motorway at exit #6 and
head north to Ano Liossia, via Fylis Avenue. Continue on this northbound
route for 5.5 km and just as you enter the village of Fyli, you will
see a sign pointing left to "Fyli Sports Centre". Turn left
and you will get to the stadium after another 1.5 km.
|
You
may also use a combination of public transport to get to Fyli, but
not to the stadium itself. Use the Suburban Railway
to "Ano Liossia", where you must change to bus
#723. Get off at the stop named "33rd Fylis", right at the
roadsign mentioned in the previous paragraph. You will then have to
walk the remaining 1.5 km to the stadium.

More
data: Fyli Stadium, located at the wuthering heights of Mt Parnitha
(!), was one of the official training venues for the 2004 Olympic
Games. Its facilities have been recently upgraded and now include
a roof over the main west stand, six VIP boxes, new facilities for
the Press, floodlights, 8-lane athletics track around the pitch, plastic
seats and, most importantly, a new north stand (curved). Watching
a football game there is highly recommended, especially if you combine
it with lunch at the famous tavernas of Fyli, a true meat-lover's
paradise!
The stadium is owned by the Municipality of Fyli. |
