About this ebook

A guidebook to 82 day walks and 10 treks in Crete’s high mountains. Exploring the beautiful scenery of Greece’s largest island, the routes are suitable for walkers of all levels, from beginners to experienced hikers.

The routes range from 2 to 28km (1–17 miles) in length and can be enjoyed in 2–14 hours. Routes are split into three sections covering Lefka Ori (White Mountains) in western Crete, Mount Ida in the central region and the Lassithi Mountains in the east. Each route is graded for difficulty from easy to remote and rugged allowing you to pick the routes that suit you.

  • Sketch mapping included
  • Walks cover parts of the long-distance European E4 trail
  • Advice on planning and preparation
  • Detailed information on public transport to and around the island
  • Easy access from Heraklion

Author

Loraine Wilson

In 1979, after returning from a spell in the early Dubai building boom, Loraine Wilson swapped life as an architectural assistant for trek leading, mainly in the mountains of Greece. A lifelong hillwalker and backpacker, she walked the Cretan mountains from 1983. In 1995 a course in Heritage Management alerted her in a more formal way to the necessity of encouraging 'inland tourism' in Crete and places like it. It was in the hope of making a useful contribution that her guidebook was written. Formerly London-based, in later years Loraine lived in Cumbria. Sadly, she passed away in 2020.
