Greek National Road 83 (Greek: Εθνική Οδός 83), abbreviated as the EO83, is a national road in Attica, Greece. The EO83 is an inverted U-shaped road that runs between Athens and Rafina, via Marathon Dam and Marathon.
The EO83 is officially defined as an inverted U-shaped road in Attica: it branches off the EO54 at Ampelokipoi in Athens, and passes through Kifissia (via Kifisias Avenue), Agios Stefanos (Oeum) and Marathon, before meeting the EO54 at a junction west of Rafina.[1] The section between Marathon and Rafina is on the route of the Athens Classic Marathon, with the remainder of the race route mostly along the EO54.[2]
