Shot on my older Samsung Galaxy, as I seldomly take my camera with me.

I'm by no means a professional photographer, but I have a real love for it as a hobby and often plan my hikes with photography in mind. I try to keep my pack light when hiking, and thankfully, a phone usually does the job. Crete, however, is so stunningly beautiful that I find myself running out of storage space far more often than I'd like!

Δεν είμαι επαγγελματίας φωτογράφος, αλλά αγαπώ πολύ τη φωτογραφία ως χόμπι και συχνά οργανώνω τις πεζοπορίες μου με βάση αυτήν. Τις περισσότερες φωτογραφίες τις τραβάω με το παλιό Samsung κινητό μου. προσπαθώ να αποφεύγω το πολύ βάρος όταν περπατάω στο βουνό, και ευτυχώς, τις περισσότερες φορές το κινητό αρκεί. Η Κρήτη όμως έχει τόση ομορφιά που η μνήμη του κινητού γεμίζει γρήγορα… και συχνά!

Petres Beach in Crete, Greece - quick snap while eating dinner, taken on the Sony A6700 with the TTArtisan 56mm f/1.8. Went for a high-contrast Lightroom edit. Absolutely love this island!

I stayed a couple of winters in Crete and always loved it. I like the sun just as much as the wind, rain and snow. I am no professional photographer and just take these pictures for my own little collection of memories.

Πείτε τις εμπειρίες σας. Ποια μονοπάτια στην Κρήτη είναι ασφαλή να πάει κάποιος μόνος του ή έστω με παρέα αλλά χωρίς καθοδήγηση από ειδικό (π.χ. ορειβατικός).

Θα παραθέσω κάποια που ξερω:

Φαράγγι Σηρικαρίου: Κυκλική διαδρομή, καλά σημαδεμένη, εύκολη. Έχει και ποτάμι. Αξίζει.

Φαράγγι Δελιανών: Βατό και αν θες γυρνάς απ' τον πάνω δρόμο να κάνεις την διαδρομή κυκλική.

Φαράγγι Καθολικού: Είναι η διαδρομή κάτω απ' την μονή Γουβερνέτου. Πολύ όμορφη διαδρομή με πολλά αξιοθέατα στον δρόμο.

All pictures are taken by me and locations are between Chania and Rethymnon. (Which includes Drakona, Kalyves, Kalami, Ombriasgialos etc)

Hope you enjoy the view ;)

New video just released on our channel 📍

A cinematic roadtrip through the wild southern coast of Crete — from the mountain village of Hondros, through the Portela Gorge, all the way down to the sea and the village of Kastri.

A raw and authentic side of Crete, captured in one breathtaking descent.

Do you know good gravel routes (day trip) starting from Rethymno?

Hi! I’m trying to rent a bike here in Rethymno so I could explore a bit around here. I like to ride single trail and more terrainy trails. How is it around Rethymno? Are there any good trails for bikes? Or like honestly anything nice! I just don’t like riding on roads for cars.

Thank you so much!

Hello all, do you know any places near Chania where you could have a picnic?

Looking for something accessible with a car or walking 30-40 minutes from a parking place, easier than a hike basically.

Inda kanis pedia?

Hello there, I was thinking about hiking this peak since I enjoy mountains and don’t want to lay on the beach my whole vacation. Do you have any advice or rather does anyone think about going and have a spare room in their car. I was thinking about an early hike since it gets really hot later during the day. I’m located near Rethymnos till Tuesday.
