10 Long Walks in Apokoronas

The best way to discover the beautiful island of Crete is on foot! This is certainly also the case for the Apokoronas region, an area with great diversity located in the northwest part of the island. The 10 walks described in this book are spread over this unique region and the combination of the beautiful nature and interesting history makes every walk a special and surprising discovery!

The 10 walks described in this book are quite strenuous but technically not so difficult. The walks are between 11 and 20 km long and mostly you will follow easy dirt tracks, land roads and paths. On a few occasions you will find some steeper stony paths. For most walks the ascend and descend is between 400m and 600m. One walk is less (280m) and one walk more (820m). For most walks there is the possibility to make a shortcut!
