Krya Vrysi: The Hi-Tech Village of Crete

With its white houses, stone fountains with flowing water, and lush greenery surrounding the village at an altitude of 520 meters, Krya Vrysi offers a scene of rare beauty. Adding to its charm, the village boasts free Wi-Fi, and its streetlights operate without electricity, harnessing renewable energy instead.

Above the village lies the impressive Rektas waterfall, a favorite spot for adventure lovers. Climbers flock to the towering, rugged mountains of Krya Vrysi year-round to test their skills and enjoy the breathtaking landscapes.

Don’t miss the Kato Vrysi, where you’ll find old stone basins once used by the villagers many years ago.

Krya Vrysi is a haven for food lovers, offering high-quality honey, olives, and olive oil, along with traditional Cretan cheeses like graviera, anthotyro, and kefalotyri. You’ll also find crisp rusks, barley bread, and plenty of raki to enjoy.
