So today I went into the Kotsifou Gorge again and then back via Mirthios past the old mill. I don't know if I was in the gorge correctly. I walked along the edge of a field path that is marked as T2. Therefore, I thought it was an unpaved trail (not a continuous line). Maybe wrongly planned or GPS error

A wonderful day is behind me. I haven't experienced such beautiful weather in Plakias for a long time. I think it was 22 degrees all day, felt like more. High UV index, my neck fiery red. I first went along the cliff and then up the local mountain. I took hundreds of photos again. Every few meters everything

Finally sun. A whole day. And the contrast couldn't be greater compared to yesterday, the second part. Nature is taking a leap again. Interesting how plants tuck their heads in and then open up again. The entire route, every mountain is enveloped in green and yellow. Breathtaking. As stupid as the rain

What a day. I'm completely soaked. Continuous pouring rain. Everything muddy, partly slippery. The paths on Komoot are overgrown or impassably blocked. Oh right, I'm on Crete.

Oh, it was beautiful today. Although everything was still gloomy and wet in the morning, it cleared up more and more. The sun came out and made everything bloom in all colors. The sea was still beautifully wavy. The view into the mountains was possible again. Could see the road up to Anopoli all the

So, I'm back on my island. Crete. As you've probably noticed, the weather isn't nice. So I took the bus to Chora Sfakion and am only walking back to Heraklion Airport. I have almost 4 weeks. I'm staying in places for 1 to 3 nights each. In Chora Sfakion yesterday there was extreme rain and a massively

Wow, simply wow. What a breathtaking tour. I walked it this way for the first time. I'll just say, look at the photos.. it's worth it. If you like green and colorful, just be amazed. You can change the tour as you like and for example walk over Preveli. But I didn't feel like getting wet and sandy. So
