Beskrivelse

Den ubebodde øya Elafonisi er riktignok liten, men den er full av naturlig skjønnhet og kulturelle rikdommer. Topolia-ravinen, Agia Sofia-grotten, Chrissoskalitissa-klosteret og en strand mange anser som den beste på øya er blant høydepunktene på denne utflukten. Rena, en av lokalguidene våre, sier: "Denne turen kombinere det beste fra det kretiske høylandet med den idylliske rosa sandstranden Elafonissi på sørkysten".

Det blir en rolig start på dagen når vi stopper for en liten kaffepause i en familiedrevet bodega i landsbyen Voulgaro. Deretter fortsetter vi med en kjøretur sørover gjennom Topolia-ravinen. Utsikten over den dype ravinen til venstre for deg er episk. Deretter besøker vi grotten Agia Sofia som er kjent for sine dryppsteiner. En rekke legender sier at hovavtrykket til St George-hesten finnes her. Hvis du ser godt etter, vil du finne noe som ser ut som et hesteskoavtrykk i en stein.

Neste stopp er Chrissoskalitissaklosteret. Det er bygget på en høyde med utsikt over kysten, og dette 1000 år gamle klosteret byr på tidløs sjarm. Navnet betyr "det gylne trinn" og er gjennomsyret av legender. Ifølge noen er ett av trinnene gyllent, men det er bare synlig for de religiøse.

Det siste stoppet er like vakkert som et postkort. Rena sier: " Du kan nå øya Elafonissi ved å gå gjennom en grunn vannstrekning fra Elafonissi-stranden". Vi tilbringer ettermiddagen med å bade, slappe av og nyte den fantastiske utsikten, før vi avslutter dagen i fiskerlandsbyen Paleochora.

    Likte godt å få sett et bredt spekter av hva Kreta har å by på. Litt kjedelig å gå i Paleochora når nesten alt var stengt på den tiden av dagen, men godt å få et avbrekk fra bussturen der likevel. Kunne godt hatt litt lengre stopp på Elafonisi.

    Veldig fin tur med interessante og hyggelige opplevelser, det gjelder både grotten, klosteret og Elafonisi-stranden. Men opplevde at det siste stoppested i småbyen etter at vi hadde vært på Elafonisi ikke var nødvendig. Det var nærmere middagstid,og kunne vært bra dersom det for eksempel hadde vært organisert et gresk måltid med kulturelt innslag der, som var noenlunde klart da vi ankom, som kunne kostet 250 kr ekstra per person. Vi rakk bare å finne en kafé og kjøpe is og kaffe.

    Variert og interessant og spennende program. Det var varmt derfor godt med et forfriskende bad. Nydelig natur fra ett sted til et annet! Nydelig lokal osterett på en liten restaurant, flott grotte med fantastiske stalamitter! Flott strand Elafonissi, nydelig liten landsby, litt skummelt med bratte fjellsider, men erfaren og trygg sjåfør gjorde det litt bedre! Ville tatt turen på nytt!!

    Flott tur, fine guider og trygg sjåfør. Imidlertid burde Paelokhora vært tatt bort. De fleste butikkene var stengt da vi ankom, og ikke et spesielt interessant eller sjarmerende sted.

    Mycket trevlig tur genom Kretas landskap mellan bergen. Vi som familj hade önskat mer tid på stranden och sen i staden. Men det var spännande med grottan.

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.

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 a late 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.
