Picnic area above the south side of the dam with sweeping panoramic views across the Marathon lake. Shade structures, picnic tables, and a monumental section of water pipe from the old supply lines that sent the water to the urban areas far below.

A water supply reservoir near the town of Marathon, used as the primary water supply of Athens city early in the 20th century. It is a passage from the northern suburbs of Athens to the town of Marathon and the north-eastern region of Attica. Really nice route, all tarmac, with a lovely coffee stop next to the dam.
