Mount Kronio, with its strong currents of hot air, is said to be the place where Icarus, the son of Daedalus, may have fallen when the wax holding his feathers together melted. It’s a lesser-known version of the Icarus legend.
His father Daedalus, the famous Athenian architect who built the labyrinth of Crete for King Minos, landed safely on these very hills. Here, using his ingenuity, he created thermal baths to channel the sulfur vapors known for their legendary therapeutic properties.
A legendary healing experience that you too can enjoy — among vapors, landscapes, and the discovery of Mediterranean plants.
