Editor's note: Crete is a multi - faceted area of ​​hikes, but in many places, it has kept a wild and virgin face. The landscape is dominated by three imposing mountain chains crisscrossed by deep gorges. High mountains and blue sea coexist here closely - an ideal combination for holidays, whatever they are. The most beautiful hikes between sea and mountain on the largest Greek island and also the most varied are described in this "Crete" Hiking guide of the Rother editions. The selected routes range from quiet hikes through hilly lands with vineyards and vast olive groves to scenic scenic destinations, not to mention the rise of some difficult peaks higher than 2000 m altitude. It is possible to cross imposing canyons or even explore caves with hidden concretions. Everywhere, we discover small villages, isolated monasteries and concealed caves. Some coastal slopes lead to peaceful coves and nothing is nicer after a hike than to take a head in the sea to cool off! Classic hikes also, such as the Samaria Gorges and the Dead Valley with the Minoen Palace, are registered in the program.
