One Active Weekend in Lassithi Plateau

Lassithi Plateau receives its winter honour with the first falling snowflakes, attracting crowds to its picturesque villages.

For a weekend filled with richness and activity, Psychro is the ideal destination.

Explore the famous windmills of the area and discover the statue of Emmanuel Papadakis, the inventor and builder of the first wooden windmill, located in the village.

On the first day, a visit to Dikteon Cave (or Dikteon Andron), the most renowned cave in Crete, is a must.

On the second day of your village stay, set out on a picturesque yet demanding route along the Ε4 trail, specifically crafted for seasoned climbers. This path will guide you to Selekano, offering a unique and challenging experience in the heart of Lassithi Plateau.
