3. White Mountains (Lefka Ori)

Reviewed By trailscouting - Greece, null
Location Western Kreta (Crete) 60 kilometers in length, from west to the east and 38 from north to south occupy most of the Chania and part of Rethymnon perfectures. The White Mountains, or Lefka Ori, or even Madares, as called by locals, deriving from the ancient word "madaros" that means deserted - barren! How better one could describe this huge massif, the largest on the island and its highest summit of Pachnes (2.453 m). The heart of this imposing range includes the Mountain Desert, where more than fifty peaks named Sori (piles), reminding of cones, exceed the altitude of 2.000 m. Dolines, reminding of upturned cones are formed at the foot of Sori peaks. This creepy and haunting landscape is a unique geological formation in the entire northern hemisphere. Hiking in the White Mountains requires fitness, experience and a good sense of orientation.

Had a lovely ride through the mountains lead by the lovely Bo (fantastic guide, lovely to meet you!). The stables are beautiful and most importantly the horses are cared for superbly. Was surprised to find the stables also has a restaurant, I did not eat here but it looks beautiful! Views and scenery are amazing, staff are caring and attentive. Cannot recommend enough! Thank you for a wonderful day Bo, Sabine and Manolis!

EscapeRooms.Gr are the new fashion beginning abroad and now in Heraklion too. It's an alternative view of the realistic game and fun through teamwork! Enjoy the experience of escape with time as the opponent! Using your mind, you have to solve the puzzles, to find the keys and the passwords, and to manage to escape inside the time limit!

Based on the difficulty levels, we chose the Holy Secret room. The clues were not too easy, and it required some skill as well. When we became stuck, the talented game master gave helpful clues to move us along in the right pace. Very interesting riddles and great actors making the whole experience even more exciting!

This bar is by far the best in Malia. It has a welcoming feel to it as soon as you walk in and it has the feel of your local just at home. They have a idiots quiz twice a week witch has a variety of different questions on different topics, no quiz has the same questions so you can go back for them all. The quiz also has shout-out rounds witch are loads of fun where you can win prises. The decoration is really good and you can tell the bar is run proudly. Gina, Bronwen and Deano are all brilliant people who don’t hesitate to spend time getting to know your name and a little bit about you which makes you feel at ease and they are easy to chat too and good listeners. Their is a variety of good drinks as well. The bar has a friendly feel to it and everyone canny help but mingling around and chatting to each other because everyone feels relaxed. I would recommend this bar to anyone who is in Crete and they definitily made my time in Malia that more better. Can’t wait to go back and see everyone. Much love, fiona x
