Christos Kakkalos (Greek: Χρήστος Κάκκαλος; 13 July 1882 – 12 April 1976) was a Greek mountain guide. He led the 1913 expedition of the Swiss Daniel Baud-Bovy and Frédéric Boissonnas and is considered the first climber to have ascended Mytikas,[1] the highest peak of Mount Olympus (2917.727 m) in Greece.[2]
