What is winter like in Crete?
The Kalergi Mountain Lodge is located in Greece, on the western side of Crete, near Chania, on the west side of the White Mountains, at an altitude of 1.600 meters. The mountain refuge is situated higher than the entrance of the Samaria Gorge and is reachable via a 5km long unpaved road from the Omalos plateau. It is a 38 km drive from the city of Chania, 38km from Sougia, a beach on the Libyan Sea, and 55km from Paleochora. Kalergi Lodge offers the highest accommodation in Crete!
Due to its location, Kalergi Refuge is the ideal starting point for nature activities.
Located in the heart of the White Mountains, it is surrounded by the most famous and beautiful trails, being an ideal choice for hikers as well as trail-running athletes. Also, the location of the Kalergi refuge makes it one of the most beautiful places to take off and fly a paraglider.
The dirt road close to the lodge creates a beautiful circular route that passes under the high peaks and the old entrance of the Samaria Gorge, a route that every visitor can follow on foot, by bicycle, or as a nature observation route with a 4×4 vehicle.
In winter there is a lot of snow and it is ideal for mountaineering ski routes. For those who love to relax in the fireplace, watching the falling snow, our lodge will be the highest accommodation in Crete in which you can spend a night and enjoy a tasty meal.
