Anatoli in Lassithi | Cretan Locations

For those interested in walking and hiking, the mountains around Anatoli offer a chance to explore and experience the sights of wild flowers, most of which bloom between February and May, and the aromas of many wild herbs especially during the summer.

Unfortunately many of the old donkey paths have been destroyed as the construction of roads for motor cars has cut across most of them and in many cases the roads have been constructed right over the old paths forever destroying the beautiful cobbled paths.

The village is supplied with water from a very old spring, whose reservoir is relatively shallow and thus strongly affected by the amount of annual rainfall.

It is considered to be one of the most traditional villages in Crete.
