Lassithi Plateau


Lassithi Plateau is one of the few areas in the Mediterranean with permanent inhabitants at an altitude over 800 metres. Lassithi plateau is 11 kilometres on the east-west axis and 6 kilometres on the north-south – an area of 25 square kilometres.

The Lassithi Plateau is best discovered with the freedom to stop in mountain villages along the route. Book your Heraklion Airport car hire and begin your inland Crete road trip directly after arrival.
