A circular hike around the Cretan mountain village of Milia, which was completely deserted for many years, but has been resurrected since the 90s as a kind of slow mountain resort for eco tourists. There, after a promising tour, you can fortify yourself with very tasty dishes that are completely self-made before you go back down the sometimes quite adventurous …

Easier tour around Milia. Difficult to reach due to road works in 2023. It is best to drive via Katsomatados.

To an eco-village through chestnut forest and secluded villages. The former summer settlement of Milia is hidden quite remotely south of Kissamos in a chestnut forest. Today it is a committed model project of sustainable tourism, to which the path alone is worthwhile because of the excellent, - but not cheap - , tavern.
