Synopsis

Crete is a unique place, full of contrasts. Due to its position in the Aegean Sea, its long history and the magnificent natural surroundings, the island attracts people of different interests and taste. In this very informative walking guide you will find everything you need to discover the island's hidden treasures. The authors, raised in Crete, have put their long experience of hiking onto paper giving detailed descriptions of the most important and most beautiful hikes, walks and rambles in Western Crete (with trails covering the regions of Chania and Rethymnon). The 51 routes are meticulously described and include all the necessary information (difficulty, duration, accommodation, access etc). You will also find interesting facts about the villages, the traditional cuisine and the sites of Western Crete, as well as the customs of the local people and their way of life. Most descriptions are accompanied by appendices with information that is less practical but will put the finishing touch to the Crete mosaic.
