A selection of 25 country walks passing through different parts of the Apokoronas area of north-west Crete. The Apokoronas area has a diverse terrain that ranges from a rocky coastline with caves, coves and sandy beaches, large flat plains of citrus and olive groves, old villages, small churches, rivers and streams, and the high foothills of the White Mountains that are snow covered for up to six months each year. These walks take you to all those places. The walks would suit tourists that want to explore the quiet countryside away from their chosen resort or local people that have not had the opportunity to explore some of the nice countryside further afield from where they live. The walks pass through the nicest and quietest parts of the local countryside. The directions are fully detailed with their length and description of the terrain to be met along the way. An introduction gives more information about the Apokoronas area and various aspects of life in Crete.
