Geocache Description:

The Amari area is always worth to visit and we think one of the highlights on Crete. In the meantime you can find some caches here leading to beautiful spots in this aera. This here is another interesting point and it was a reason to put a cache here.


The Monastery of Asomaton is situated in the lush green Asomatiano Valley, at the intersection of the central road of Amari. The date of its foundation is unknown, its existence has been certified in the II. Byzantine Period. In former times the monastery had the characteristic of a fortress. Unfortunately today very little has remained of its former grandeur. Today the monastery is to be re-established, including the re-construction of its buildings in order to operate again. You can read the whole history on an information sign near the monastery/scholi Asomaton.

The cache:
The box only contains a log book and a small pen. So better you have your own pen with you.

Have fun with caching here.
