If you go downhill towards the location Paliokklisies you will enjoy the view of the Diapontia Islands.

Krini is a very old village and tradition says that it existed even in the Homeric years. The certain thing is that its inhabitants during the Middle Ages were the Akrites (frontiersmen) who guarded the borders of the Byzantine Empire. Besides, some of the surnames of the village derive from the ranks of the Byzantine army.
