Meet at 9:30 am at our meeting point located in Galini
(between Ierapetra and Makrigialos). You will be welcomed
by our guide (French/English) who will give you all the instructions
on the vehicle as well as the safety instructions to be respected.
You will also have the opportunity to take a test drive to
familiarise yourself with the Quad.
We will leave Galini to head towards the mountains of
southern Crete
where we will cross olive groves. You will be able to
admire stalactites as well as the beauty of the mountains
during our first stop where you can take pictures.
We will then continue on our way and cross a small
mountain village before entering a forest where you can
discover various Mediterranean plant species.
We will make our second stop to admire an exceptional
panorama of the Libyan Sea
We will continue our walk on steep paths and cross a
sheepfold before visiting an Orthodox chapel isolated
in the mountains.
We will then climb to a plateau with a breathtaking 360° view
(you will discover the Cretan Sea with the bay of Mirabello,
Agio Nicholaos and Elounda for the North part, as well as the
Libyan Sea with the islands Chrissi and Koufounissi for the South part).
After this break we will begin our descent to a pretty
mountain village with a breathtaking view to share a typical
Cretan lunch in a charming traditional tavern.
We will then continue our descent to Galini, via winding
Cretan roads, to reach our meeting point.
