The High Mountains of Crete trekking guidebook - Cicerone

Crete is well known to be blessed with Mediterranean sun, and thousands flock to its resorts every year. But the inland mountains that rise craggy and stark behind the beaches provide not only warm, sunshine days, but plenty of mountain adventures for walkers of all abilities.

87 routes, a combination of short walks, full days and multi-day treks are explored in this guidebook. Divided into regions; western Crete's White Mountains, central Crete's Psiloritis Mount Ida and eastern Crete's Lassithi Mountains, there is a wealth of walking to be explored, all accompanied by information on the island's culture and history, points of interest, mapping and photography.
