Katharo Plateau

The plateau Katharo lies 26km south of Agios Nikolaos and 16km west of Kritsa, at an altitude of 1150 meters. The waters of the plateau are transported through the beautiful gorge of Havgas into Lassithi Plateau. Katharo main settlement is Avdeliakos and is almost uninhabited, although there are several farmhouses belonging to the village of Kritsa. You will only see a few family gardens with potatoes, apple trees and vineyards, mainly grown by the shepherds of the area. You will also see the picturesque chapel of Lord Christ, celebrating on August 6.
