This is the fabulous place to experience another piece of Cretan history - archery overlooking the sea and among ancient olive trees. Archery skills or a certain fitness are not necessary, because we make sure that you feel safe and well in a few moments. You get as little or as many lessons as you want, in an easy-to-understand language. Children are welcome and they learn to shoot very fast.

I gave it to a friend for her birthday and we were both thrilled with this wonderful facility in the mountains of southern Crete. The two friendly owners built everything themselves with great attention to detail. With professional knowledge and personal commitment, it was a fantastic experience that everyone who stays there should have.

We have known the facility since the beginning of 2019 and always enjoy coming to Susanne and Kirsten. Very, very nice people and extremely professional care, even for our children, who feel very comfortable there. Plus a great view of the sea.
The course itself is well set up and varied and also offers enough shade. Equipment is professional and you get individual training.
A clear recommendation for a great family outing!
Best wishes, thank you very much & keep it up,
Christian, Rafaela, Benni & Max

I hiked to the archery site by foot from Paleochora and was greeted by Suri, the super sweet dog, and then made friends with both her and the personnel. I was immediately assisted by Kirsten (one of the two lovely women that run the place) in finding the suitable equipment for me to borrow, and was totally satisfied and happy with it – very professional gear. Kirsten then proceeded to teach me archery technique from scratch in a simple, straight-forward, instinctive way, leaving me finding confidence and not overthinking things, but staying in my body. In her instructions she connected the mental and bodily approach, mindset and philosophy of archery into all aspects of life outside of just shooting with bow and arrow. Inspiring thoughts she was sharing! She was uplifting, positive, warm, honest, thoughtful and precise in her input and guidance. When she concluded that I was ready to proceed on my own, she let me off the parcour and let me explore my new brand passion of archery on my own, checking in on me every now and then. In the end she even gave me some cool special challenges. Kirsten gave me a lot of her time and focus and her guidance was professional, valuable and inspiring. The weather was perfect and it was such a magical afternoon on the hillside with this amazing view towards Paleochora through the Azogires Gorge. It is such a stunning location there!
I had so much fun that I couldn't stop shooting until the sun was sinking close toward the mountainside and it was time to pack up the things. I couldn't imagen a better, more enjoyable or more beautiful first introduction to the world of archery. I fell in love with this activity, and the passion of Kirsten was shared and spread to yet another person. I highly recommend anyone in this area of Crete to pay them a visit and try their fun, challenging and beautiful parcour course, whether you be new to archery or a veteran wishing to practice your favourite activity.
Do yourself a favour and try this out! Enjoy!

In November I went with my brother and his 2 jung boys for the first time to this beautiful park in the middle of the mountains and still right by the sea. We had a great time at Parko Toxovolias and we will surely come again.
The park was beautiful and we got great archery lessons with tips, not only how to handle the equipment, but also how to handle the whole family.... because it is really exciting, when you do archery for the first time.
Thank you very much for the beautiful day at your park!

Beautiful 3d archery range and professional instructions from Kirsten. We went there last year as completely new to archery, and we liked it so much that we immediately joined a local archery club when we came home to Denmark, and this year we returned as experienced archers and had just as much fun as the first time.

We visited on Sunday and had such an amazing day. We were a group of 6, including two children (aged 13 and 10), and being new to archery we had a great introduction from Kirsten and Susanne, they took the time to explain how to use the equipment and we were able to take as much practice time as needed before heading to the 20-target trail.
There is a high focus on safety and it felt very reassuring being able to walk through the course. The place is kept immaculately clean and there are stunning views.
It was such a great experience, made better by the care and attention of Kirsten, Susanne Yiannis, and Zuri. We spent 4-5 hours there and it was great value for money. This is highly recommended as a day out.

Our family (ages 6-50something) spent a wonderful evening here, wandering through olive groves, following a nicely laid out course, shooting arrows at various targets (including a very startled longhorn goat!) and enjoying stunning views.
Kirsten and Susanne were wonderful hosts, introducing us to the fun sport of archery with patience and passion.
100% would recommend if you fancy trying something different while visiting Paleochora.

Mini-golf with bows but better.
We had a great fun and I'd recommand to anyone wanting to try archery.
It was our first time but it had no impact on the quality of the activity.
Thanks to both of you.

I was here with my family for a tour around the park with bows and arrows. It was a very speciel experience. The park is beautifully made all by hand, and it has both easy and challenging target ranges. When you first get a hold for it, it becomes a deeply meditative experience as well as a fun and social activity to do with friends and family. I will definetly come back another time when visiting Crete.
