Old Woman’s Jump Waterfall at Fodele

Fodele (which is 30 km from Heraklion) is a blessed village with dozens of streams and rivers that, all together, supply the river Pantomatris. Many of the streams form waterfalls, such as the waterfall of Grias to Pidima (Old Woman’s Jump), in the area of Rechtra.

The waterfall has a total height of 80 metres and consists, in essence, of many smaller stairs. The same stream below creates other smaller waterfalls just as impressive.
