Crete is the largest island in Greece. Dominated by mountain ranges that stretch from west to east, including the famous White Mountains, Crete also has valleys, gorges and hidden coves to explore. The combination of these landscapes and the climate make Crete a great place for a hiking holiday.
The island’s most famous walks are along the magnificent Samaria Gorge and to the summit of Mount Gingilos however there are many other enjoyable walks waiting to be discovered.
There are a lot of hiking clubs that organize excursions, but if you want you can explore the area of Hersonissos by yourself.
