    This trail is a challenge for true hikers, connecting the majestic Gouverneto Monastery with the historic Metochi of St. Anthony. Although the path is less marked, it offers an authentic experience of the Cretan countryside. As you walk, feel the energy of the ascetics who once inhabited these lands, in a landscape that combines spirituality with rugged natural beauty.

    Author’s recommendation

    Take only memories, leave only footprints. Ants and other insects or animals have not yet discovered how to consume plastic. Take all rubbish back with you.

    Don’t start a fire if you feel cold. Try walking faster.

    Smoking on the trail will not help in anything. Neither you, nor the risk of fire.

    Local people are not a tourist sight! If you want to take a picture, kindly ask. They will certainly smile to you!

    If you find a door on the trail, pass freely, and leave it as you found it.

    Stay on the trail. There is a reason why for many centuries people chose to walk on them and not elsewhere.
