• Main entrance on Kifisias Avenue, by KAT hospital, on the edge of Marousi, Kifisia and Melissia
• Bring bikes or skates, since the forest tracks are open to cycling and rollerblading, including the 6 km perimeter trail
• A working farm estate too, with greenhouses, olive groves, vineyards and apiaries run by the Institute of Agricultural Sciences

Syngrou Estate spans about 95 hectares, most of it the Syngrou Forest: Aleppo pine and cypress, and one of the last natural forests in Attica. Tracks for running, rollerblading and cycling include a 6 km perimeter trail, alongside a football pitch, a playground and picnic spots.
