Skotino (or Agia Paraskevi) Cave

Skotino (or Agia Paraskevi) Cave

Lies at altitude of 225 meters just north of the village of Skoteino near Gouves. Findings here include votive offerings and an inscription dating back to the 4th C BC, but now thought to be fake. There is a Byzantine church close, hence the alternative name of Saint Paraskevi. Skotino means “dark”.
