Olympoi Cave
Σπήλαιο Ολύμπων
A compact show cave near Olympoi with dramatic calcite formations and a stable underground environment, adding a geological counterpoint to the medieval villages.
Directions
Near the village of Olympoi, this compact show cave adds a completely different experience to a day in the Mastichochoria. Inside, calcite formations, stalactites and stalagmites create an atmospheric underground landscape and a welcome contrast to the heat of the southern villages. Expect steps and cool cave conditions, and allow enough time for the guided or controlled entry arrangements in force on the day.
