Papikio (el|Παπίκιο) is a mountain in Rhodope, Greece. Christian ascetics and monks lived on the mountain during the Byzantine period.[2] [3] Today, Byzantine monastery ruins can be found on the mountain.
In Bulgarian, Papikio is known as Orlitsa (bg|Орлица). In Turkish, it is known as Kartal Dağı. It is the highest point of the Eastern Rhodopes as well as the highest summit of the Komotini Ridge (bg|[[:bg:Гюмюрджински снежник|Гюмюрджински снежник]]|translit=Gyumyurdzhinski Snezhnik), which is shared by Bulgaria and Greece. The southernmost point of Bulgaria, Veykata (1463 m; bg|[[:bg:Вейката|Вейката]]) is located a few kilometres to the north of Papikio.[4]
