BOTANICAL PARK & GARDENS OF CRETE

At Fournes village, 17km from Chania, close to Omalos is located the Botanical Park & Gardens of Crete. Botanical Park is full of fruit trees from all over the world, herbs, medicinal and ornamental plants in a park different from others, where the land’s formation and the region’s microclimate make it a paradise for hundreds of plants and animals!

Botanical Park Path

It was created by four brothers who transformed the family’s 200 acres of agricultural land into a hilly park of medicinal, tropical, ornamental and fruit trees, all well-signed and beautifully arrayed from mountaintop to valley floor. A cross between a scenic hike and an interesting nature trail, the Botanical Gardens of Crete offers visitors a fantastic day out away from the beach.

Well-signposted paths take you through the different sections of the Botanical Park, which consist of tropical trees, fruit trees, citrus groves, herbs and vineyards.

The lake at the bottom of the park offers a home to ducks, geese and other water birds. You’ll see pairs of buzzards flying overhead too. There’s even a spectacular amphitheatre on the site.
