Our amazing off-road adventure starts after crossing the valley full of orange
trees, avocado’s and vegetables gardens. Climbing up the foot of White
Mountains and passing through Cretan villages getting the feeling of
mountainous Crete we arrive in our coffee stop to enjoy our morning break.
Coffee or mountain tea will be offered for free to our guests enjoying the
village life far away from mass tourism. Continuing our tour following the off
road route up to the shepherd’s hut “Mitato” far away from touristic areas,
where only a 4 wheel driver can approach, you will enjoy the magnificent
panoramic view of northern Crete and, If we are lucky ... eagles and wild
goats will show up and give us a very good reason for some extra photo stops.
A small rocky road will lead us up to our trip’s highest point 1350 meters in
altitude in the heart of White Mountains of Crete, where you will find out all
about the lifestyle of a shepherd, where the famous Cretan “Graviera” cheese
was produced and explore an original Shepherd's hut "Mitato".
On our way back we will enjoy the best panoramic view of Chania from above
