Cosa aspettarsi

L'isolotto disabitato di Elafonisi, nel sud-ovest di Creta, è ricco di bellezze naturali e di ricchezze culturali. La gola di Topolia, la grotta di Agia Sophia, il monastero di Chrissoskalitissa e una spiaggia che molti considerano la migliore dell'isola sono tra i punti salienti di questa escursione giornaliera. Rena, una delle nostre guide locali, dice: "Questo tour combina il meglio degli altopiani cretesi con l'idilliaca spiaggia di sabbia rosa di Elafonisi, sulla costa meridionale".

L'inizio della giornata è tranquillo, con una sosta per un caffè in una taverna a conduzione familiare nel borgo agricolo di Voulgaro. Da qui, ci aspetta un viaggio drammatico verso sud attraverso la gola di Topolia. La vista sulla profonda gola alla vostra sinistra è epica. Visiteremo poi la grotta di Agia Sophia, famosa per le sue stalattiti. Legata a diverse leggende, si dice che qui si trovi l'impronta dello zoccolo del cavallo di San Giorgio. E se guardate bene, troverete l'impronta di un ferro di cavallo in una roccia.

Il prossimo passo è il Monastero di Chrissoskalitissa. Costruito su una collina che domina la costa, questo rifugio di 1.000 anni offre un fascino senza tempo. Il suo nome significa "gradini d'oro" ed è intriso di mito. Secondo alcuni, uno dei gradini è d'oro, ma è visibile solo ai religiosi. L'ultimo porto di scalo è a dir poco perfetto per le cartoline. Rena dice: "Potete raggiungere l'isolotto di Elafonisi camminando attraverso un tratto di acqua bassa dalla spiaggia di Elafonisi". Trascorrete il pomeriggio nuotando, rilassandovi e ammirando i panorami più belli, quindi concludete la giornata al villaggio di pescatori di Paleochora.

Family tour to the mountains of Crete with Mythological Park

This action-packed day brings the essence of Crete to life for all the family. Discover Greek mythology as you explore scenic mountain trails on an off-road adventure leading to the Lassithi plateau. There's a chance to have a go at making ceramics and a visit to the Mythological Park, too. Katerina, one of our expert local guides, enthusiastically says, ‘Lassithi plateau is a personal favourite on this tour. You'll be greeted by the sight of dozens of windmills that dot the landscape. They were built in the 19th century to grind grain, and are now a symbol of the region.'Kick off on a trail which climbs into the mountains to reach the first stop at the Aposelimi dam. From here we'll make our way to a viewpoint where we can see across the Lassithi plateau, a high, fertile plain that legend states was the birthplace of Zeus.Rumbling down to the plateau, we'll head to a ceramics workshop and olive oil producer. It's a fun stop for the kids who will have plenty of time to have a go at making their own pottery creations. Next up is the Mythological park, where you'll find out all about ancient Greek myths - the special lighting and sound effects alongside the audio tour make the park enjoyable for all ages. Round off the day with lunch in a taverna, before calling in at the village of Krassi, which is famous for a 2,000-year old plane tree and has a natural spring water source.
