Our hike starts close to the Lassithi Plateau. We start ascending from an old minoan path that will lead us up to our highest point, the peak of Karfi (1100m altitude).
There we will see the spectacular mountains of Dikti (2148m altitude). Karfi is the ancient settlement of the Minoans which was inhabited at the late Minoan period (1200 – 1000 BC).
Through our hike we will have amazing 360° views towards all directions, wonderful sea view and at the same time the spectacular mountain peaks of mt. Dikti that exceed 2000m altitude. After our hike we will visit the traditional villages of Lassithi plateau. Last but not least we visit the springs, the monumental Platanus tree and the traditional village of Krasi.
Definitely, an experience that will lead you through Crete’s hidden gems.
