This excursion’s meeting point is set at the village of Kritsa (district of Mirambello – Lasithi) at 9:00 am.
Together we will follow the ancient Minoan path that extends to the west of the village and leads to the plateau of Katharo.
We will walk through the cypress forest of Kritsa, which is the largest of its kind on the island and is inhabited for many centuries, as shown by the numerous archaeological remains that have been found in the area.
During the walk we will have the opportunity to get in touch with the rich flora and fauna of the mountain, but also to enjoy the unique breathtaking view of the Mirambello Gulf.
