Walks Plakias
Plakias is a true paradise for people who love to walk in nature, enjoying breathtaking panoramas and diverse flora and fauna. The surroundings are full of beautiful walks from easy to difficult and adventurous. You can enjoy a walk alongside a river, the irrigation channels or the beaches, walk through olive fields and picturesque mountain villages or to the top of a mountain.
I have put together 17 walks in the surroundings of Plakias with detailed directions, points of interests and maps.
A lot of the walks can be easily combined and the walks that start outside of Plakias are reachable by bus or taxi. The given durations of the walks are of course depending on speed and don't include breaks. The use of the term flat is of course relative on Crete.
Don't forget to bring water, sun block, head wear and sturdy shoes.
On the map below you can see all the hikes. Click on the hikers to get all the information about a walk. For more information and photos about the landmarks and villages on the map you can just click on them.
Below the map you can scroll through a short recap of each walk with the length, duration and points of interests.
Enjoy the beauty of Plakias and its surroundings and don't forget to leave only your footprints!
When you walk into a fence on Crete you can open it as long as you close it again before continuing, the fences are there to keep animals in or out!
