In the north of Crete lies the village that time forgot - Veni. One of Crete's most picturesque villages, Veni moves at a pace so slow you can't help but let all your worries drift away!
Above Veni is Crete's highest mountain peak Psiloritis which aside from creating views to die for, also offers great hiking opportunities on the slopes and in the foothills that run with streams! Nearby to Veni lies the ancient town of Axos which is also well worth a visit – you'll quickly find yourself relaxing in Veni!
Hiring a car is a good idea so you can visit some of Crete's nicest north beaches and spend a few hours – or days – lazing around on the silky soft sand or snorkelling the clear blue sea! When you return, Veni has some delightfully friendly tavernas where you can enjoy great food and great people!
