Places near Adrianos
The cave opens at the basis of a huge limestone rock. Is is located 1km (or10min by walking), southeast of the village Adrianos, in a regiod called Chlampouti Koukistres, close to Zenia village (on the way from Neapolis to the Lassithi Plateau).
The distance from Agios Nikolaos city is 23km. It consists of 4 bigger rooms and 5 smaller. The first chamber is larger than the others. The total length of the cave is 48m and the length of the path approaches the 100m.
Adrianos gorge is located immediately after the village of Adrianos at the lowest point of the large ravine of the river that starts from the Village Potamous at the east side of the Lassithi mountains and flows through the town of Agios Nikolaos (near the stadium).
About two hundred meters east from the village are the "doors ", formed by two huge rocks on either side of the river. The gorge is quite tall with impressive rock formations and with a "serpentine" path almost its entire length. Along the riverbed you see huge rocks creating small "tunnels" and a point that needs the help of ropes to descend, due to the height difference of the riverbed at this point, making the trip fun and quite interesting. A big part of the route is coveret with shadow by big trees and along with the cool breeze which always blows, makes the walking easier.
