Crete: Walking between the sea and the mountains
Single-centre walking week on Crete, based near Georgioupolis: easy to moderate walks on mule tracks and country paths lead to villages, to the Monastery of St Elias, through the green hinterland of Rethymnon and along the Imbros Gorge to the south coast. Further highlights include Arkadi Monastery with a descent to Maroulas, as well as Argiroupoli/Lappa with its necropolis and ancient plane tree. One free day for the beach, Rethymnon or Knossos. Hotel with pool; home-produced olive oil and home-grown vegetables. Up to 14 km, moderate ascents, partly rocky underfoot; one walk more challenging. Flight not included in the price; on request we can book low-cost flights from your airport.
