One Day in the Nature and Culture of the Lassithi Plateau!
The Lassithi Plateau is famous for the Cave of Zeus, but don't overlook the significance of the Kronio Cave.
Start your day in Tzermiado, enjoy a scenic walk to the cave, and then savor a meal at the nearby taverna. Just a short drive away, you'll find the village of Agios Georgios, home to a fascinating Folklore Museum.
Begin your adventure in Tzermiado, one of the largest villages in the Municipality of Lassithi Plateau, full of traditional charm waiting to be discovered.
Nearby lies the Kronio Cave, which has gained attention in recent years thanks to the local cultural association “Anagenissi” (Rebirth). Each spring, they host a two-day event called The Kronio Festival to showcase this hidden gem.

Try the goat stew or stifado at Kronio Taverna—each dish is crafted with genuine passion!
Second Stop: Agios Georgios
A quick 10-minute drive brings you to the village of Agios Georgios, where authentic Crete welcomes you with open arms.
Here, under the management of the Municipality of Lassithi Plateau, the local Folklore Museum offers a window into the lives of past generations.
Open during the summer months, it's ready to immerse you in the traditions and way of life of a bygone era.
