Litochoro (Greek: Λιτόχωρο, Litóchoro; Katharevousa: Λιτόχωρον) is a town and a former municipality in the southern part of the Pieria regional unit, Macedonia, Greece.

The first recorded mention of Litochoro is in an account of a visit by Saint Dionysius (Greek: Άγιος Διονύσιος) to Mount Olympus in the 16th century.

One of the most famous Litohorians was Christos Kakkalos, who made the first modern unaided ascent of Mount Olympus in 1913.

[4] Pine, cedar and fir trees of the forests of Mount Olympus lie to the southwest and northwest.

Alexandrion (Litochoro) Located beside the highway (GR-1/E75), the Alexandreion is an impressive monument-building devoted to Alexander the Great.

Plundered and burned several times in its history, it received the final blow from German troops in April 1943.

An extended coastal area known as Pláka or Pláka Litochorou (Πλάκα Λιτοχώρου) is located east of the town of Litochoro, spreading from the foot of Olympus to the Thermaic Gulf and extending from Leptokarya in the south to Gritsa in the north.

In the mid-1990s, parts of the Greek national road from Athens to Thessaloniki were upgraded to motorway standard.
