VarympompiorVarybobi (Greek: Βαρυμπόμπη) is a suburb of Athens in the municipality of Acharnes, East Attica, Greece.

Geography

[edit]

Varympompi is situated at the foot of the forested Parnitha mountains, 3 km east of Thrakomakedones, 4 km west of Kryoneri, 7 km northeast of Acharnes and about 17 km (11 mi) northeast of Athens city centre. The Olympic Village of the 2004 Summer Olympics is 3 km southwest of Varympompi. The Varympompi cliffs, northwest of the village, are a well-established rock climbing area.[2]

History

[edit]

Varympompi has historically been an Arvanite settlement.[3]

Varympompi is known for the huge wildfire during the 2021 Greece wildfires burning hundreds of km². It was burnt down to the stone remains and the entire village and its surroundings were forced to evacuate to a safer place.
