Agia Paraskeui Cave: Introduction

This is one of the three largest caves in the prefecture of Heraklion.It's just a few minutes driving from the village of Skotino and is at a height of 225 meters above sea-level. Many dyno's here! There is one route at 5b, one at 5c and 3 between 6a+ and 6c. Rest are really hard, up to 8b+, maybe more. It's a lovely place to climb during the summer as it's always in the shadow.


Area Info

As you going down to the cave this sector is the first on the left. It has the easiest route on the area, 5a. It's difficult to get a panoramic photo due to cave's position. This is why I added just the numbers of each route to the starting point of each one.

Area Info

A few meters away from sector 1 and as you hit the main entrance of the cave, is where this spot is located.
