Giristi
Hiking in east side of mount Psiloritis or mount Ida and especially in summit Gurisi is a great adventure. This is a demanding hike as the journey starts from 400 meters and going up to the summit at 1779 meters; that is an ascent of 1379 meters in a day. You need to be very fit to complete this hike. The view from the summit is outstanding, one of the best landscapes in Crete. The hike starts from the village of Ano Asites just half an hour drive from the city of Heraklio. From Ano Asites the group will follow stay on an off road approximately for 1.5km and then will move on a rocky path all way up until the base of Giristi summit. During the walk there will be a break at the refuge of Prinos (1100 m). Occasionally is open; if that is the case we can have a cold or hot drink depending the season!
