The town is built amphitheatrically on the hills of Agia Anna and Vardounia. On the west and east side, the town has low vegetation and is stony, while on the southeast side there is a wonderful pine forest, Korakia. North of Kranidi lies the mountain of Prophet Elias and northwest is the Valley with the traditional homonymous village and prehistoric cave Franghi just 6 km away.
