Lefka Ori, which literally translates to White Mountains, are located in the prefecture of Chania and got their name either from the all-year-round snow-covered peaks or from the limestone rocks that give their high, steep and barren peaks this off-white color. The journey through the orange-tree villages is magical and filled with the scents and colors of spring. The higher we go, the most impressive the scenery becomes, where croplands are set against the wild, mountainous landscape. In the area you will find many local taverns that serve delicious traditional meals and Cretan specialties. |
