The Location
Koronos is a picturesque mountain village on the Greek island of Naxos, located in the Cyclades. Nestled on the slopes of Mount Koronos, the village is known for its traditional whitewashed houses, narrow stone-paved alleys, and unique charm, reflecting the quintessential Cycladic architecture and serene beauty of Naxos. Koronos is one of the oldest villages on the island, and its history stretches back centuries, with roots in mining, particularly emery (or “smyri”), a hard mineral that was highly valued for abrasive purposes.

Highlights of Koronos Village
Emery Mines: Koronos is famous for its emery mines, which were historically an essential part of the local economy. The mountainous terrain is dotted with remnants of old mines, and the village is proud of its mining heritage, which visitors can explore through walking trails and sites.

Traditional Architecture: The village is a blend of Cycladic and Venetian styles, with labyrinthine streets that lead visitors through a charming maze of stone houses, small squares, and blooming bougainvillea. Many homes have terracotta roofs, a unique characteristic among Cycladic villages, giving Koronos a distinctive appearance.

Local Tavernas and Cafes: Koronos is also known for its warm, welcoming locals and traditional eateries. Small family-owned tavernas serve local dishes made from fresh, local ingredients, offering visitors an authentic taste of Naxian cuisine. Local specialties might include dishes with locally sourced vegetables, cheeses, and olive oil.

Panagia Agrokiliotissa Festival: One of the most notable celebrations in Koronos is the feast of Panagia Agrokiliotissa, held in April. This festival draws locals and visitors alike, featuring traditional music, dances, and Naxian food. It’s a highlight of the cultural calendar and a wonderful way to experience the village’s rich traditions.

Scenic Views and Nature Walks: The location of Koronos, surrounded by green mountainsides and terraced fields, provides stunning views and excellent hiking trails. Walking through these landscapes allows visitors to experience the natural beauty of Naxos, and there are several well-marked paths that lead to breathtaking viewpoints.

Koronos is a quieter destination, ideal for visitors seeking an authentic experience away from the more tourist-heavy areas of Naxos. It captures the essence of rural island life, with a slow-paced atmosphere, warm hospitality, and a sense of timelessness, offering a glimpse into Naxos's rich history and local culture.
