More than just a race, this event is a call for protection!
“Kronio Trail is a cry against the threats endangering our natural environment. The mountain peaks of the Lassithi Plateau and the Dikti range (protected NATURA areas), the ridges, the forests, and our historic trails are under threat from licensed wind turbine installations and other interventions that alter our land.

By taking part, we all become a strong voice that says:
No to destruction – Yes to protection,” say the organisers.

Organisation:
The race is organised by the Cultural Association of Tzermiado "Anagennisi" in collaboration with the Region of Crete and the Municipality of Lassithi Plateau, with technical support from AMKE Diadromes Idaias, Hochlios Team, and EOS Lassithiou (Greek Mountaineering Club of Lassithi).
