A very beautiful, small and tranquil mountain village with access to the hiking trail into the Kritsa gorge. The most famous attraction near Kritsa is the church of Panagía i Kerá. In addition to agriculture, the residents earn their living mainly by selling handicrafts. Here you can buy very beautiful handmade souvenirs and not mass-produced items from China. 👍

Nice village with some shops and nice taverns. You can also buy very good olive oil here.
